概要
Welcome to The G. K. Chesterton Library, where the old books are opened again, and found to be astonishingly alive. Here are tales of priests and paradoxes, of taverns and trumpets, of common things made strange and splendid. In these readings, Chesterton’s wit, wonder, faith, and thunderous good humour return to the road, inviting every listener to discover that the world is not merely sensible, but miraculous.Public domain

    In which the curious notion of race is examined as a convenient cloak for the errors and comforts of the powerful, particularly in the strained relations between England and Ireland. It is observed that nationality, a spiritual and psychological unity far beyond mere bloodlines, shines most notably in Ireland's ability to absorb many peoples, defying the false mystique of “Celtic” separateness with a quietly sensible identity.
