About this title

Review

'for the first time, we have an edition of his [Chesterton's] journalism produced to high scholarly standards.' Cambridge Quarterly Review 'This is an essential resource for scholars seeking to gauge Chesterton's status as a trenchant middlebrow pundit.' The Year's Work in English Studies 'This is a major work of scholarship in its own right, the most detailed and expert which has ever been accorded to Chesterton ... These volumes form a most important addition to Chesterton studies.' The Chesterton Review 'presents a large portion of Chesterton's work that has been previously unavailable ... the collection [is] not just excellent in and of itself but a model for future editions of Chesterton's journalism.'
