Review:"Whenever I feel my faith going dry again, I wander to a shelf and pick up a book by G.K. Chesterton." --from the foreword by Philip Yancey, author of What's So Amazing About Grace? and The Jesus I Never Knew "My favorite on the list [of top 100 spiritual classics of the twentieth century] is Chesterton's Orthodoxy. It offers wonderful arguments for embracing religious traditions, but it also has humor you don't typically find in religious writing." --Philip Zaleski, author and journalist Named by Publisher's Weekly as one of 10 "indispensable spiritual classics" of the past 1500 years. --Publisher?s Weekly "Chesterton's most enduring book.... Charming." --World From the Hardcover edition.
