Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936)-critic, novelist, apologist, and general controversialist-was one of the great Catholic writers of the twentieth century. He brought a distinctive Catholic perspective to history, social concerns, literature, and art-even to the genre of detective novels in the famous Father Brown mysteries. Chesterton's writing also contains a definite spiritual dimension, displayed not so much in his writing on 'spiritual topics,' (which he eschewed) as in certain habits of mind and heart.
