Here is the book that converted C. S. Lewis from atheism to Christianity. This history of mankind Christ and Christianity is to some extent a conscious rebuttal of H. G. Wells' Outline of History which embraced both the evolutionary origins of humanity and the mortal humanity of Jesus. Whereas Orthodoxy detailed Chesterton's own spiritual journey this book illustrates the spiritual journey of humanity or at least of Western civilization. A book for both mind and spirit.

G.K. Chesterton is perhaps the best kept secret of our time. He was the most prolific writer of his time and we should all spend more time studying his work. This book is both deep and hysterically funny in places. His dry wit and sense of humor is refreshing in this age of dry writing. Highly recommended !!
