G. K. Chesterton

Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936) was an English journalist whose works include nearly all forms of written expression, including essays, novels, short stories, poems, plays, biography, literary criticism.

For more information about Chesterton, contact the G. K. Chesterton Institute (in the UK) or the American Chesterton Society (in the US). Gilbert! Magazine brings the thought of Chesterton to bear on contemporary problems, and in a contemporary voice.
