GKC Wednesday

Background: When I was the editor of Gilbert Magazine, I was responsible for the "Tremendous Trifles" column. It was occasionally hard to find a sufficient amount of interesting GKC material to fill the page, so John Peterson sent me a file full of Chesterton ancedotes. They were idiosyncratic, historical, and Chestertonian. He gave me permission to use them here. I hope y'all find them as interesting as I have over the years. Most of them have never been published.

Chesterton Short(s)

Admirers of Chestertons fiction will be interested to learn that the 1993 Cambridge Factfinder lists G. K. Chesterton as one of the significant novelists. Novelist Chesterton's best novel is listed as The Innocence of Father Brown. [P. 534].
