new g.k. SPRING chesterton books
St. Thomas Aquinas & St. Francis of Assisi
Many consider these biographies the best short portraits
ever written of these saints. St. Francis of Assisi
explains and illuminates the life of St. Francis. St.
Thomas Aquinas is enriched by Chesterton’s unique
ability to see the world through the saint’s eyes.
TAFA-P . . . 320 pp, Sewn Softcover, $16.95
The Well and the Shallows
One of Chesterton’s last books, this is considered one
of his finest collections of essays. He diagnoses the rising
threats of anti-Semitism and Nazism, the problems
of materialism and capitalism, the sickness of immoral
sexual behavior and eugenics, and much more.
WS-P . . . 203 pp, Sewn Softcover, $14.95
Lepanto — Edited by Dale Ahlquist EA
This book brings together Chesterton’s famous

a riveting account of the battle itself, and a discussion
of its historical consequences.
LEP-P . . . 130 pages, Sewn Softcover, $11.95
G.K. Chesterton — Dale Ahlquist E

share with us.

The Autobiography of G.K. Chesterton
Here is Chesterton in his own words. Critic Sydney
Dark wrote that “perhaps the happiest thing that
happened in Gilbert Chesterton’s extraordinarily
happy life was that his autobiography was finished
a few weeks before his death. It is a tremendously
interesting book.” Illustrated.
GKCA-P . . . 344 pages, Softcover, $16.95
The Everlasting Man EA
Possibly Chesterton’s greatest masterpiece, this is
his whole view of world history as informed by the
Incarnation. Chesterton shows how the fulfillment of
man’s desires takes place in the person of Christ and
in his Church.
ELM-P . . . 270 pp, Sewn Softcover, $14.95
Audio book: ELM:A-D . . . 10 CDs, $29.95
What’s Wrong With the World E
Chesterton gives his remarkably perceptive analysis
on social and moral issues—more relevant today
than even in his own time. In his light and humorous
style, yet deadly serious and philosophical, he
comments on feminism, errors in education, the
importance of the child, and other issues.
WWW-P . . . 205 pp, Softcover, $14.95
The Ballad of the White Horse
One of the last great epic poems in the English language,
it describes King Alfred’s battle against the
Danes in 878, and it is also a timeless allegory about
the ongoing battle between Christianity and the
forces of nihilistic heathenism. Illustrated.
BWH-H . . . 280 pp, Sewn Hardcover, $21.95
The Catholic Church and Conversion
In this book, Chesterton’s brilliance as a writer and
thinker again shines through as he explains his
understanding of the Catholic Church, and how her
appeal to reason and truth eventually won him over.
