G.K. Chesterton was a journalist, playwright, poet, biographer, novelist, essayist, literary commentator, editor, orator, artist, and theologian. Orthodoxy is his great theological work, which amounts to an apology for the Christian faith heretofore unequalled, excepting perhaps by C.S. Lewis's Mere Christianity. A serious attack, in 1903, against Christianity by Robert Blatchford, well-known newspaper editor, impelled Chesterton to seize the gauntlet of refutation. His reply was immensely successful and was the early formation of his convincing credo that is so brilliantly and cogently argued in Orthodoxy, a masterwork that was published just five years later.

    This book is perfect for the rational, intellectual Christian who doesn't quite know how to "argue" about his or her faith. Yes, we need to be able to defend our faith when questioned, and there are many different approaches, but Chesterton's is a really powerful way that forces you to re-examine facts and arguments against Christianity. True orthodoxy, as he claims, is the only truth that measures up.

    It would be great if there could be a modern version of the book, with more accessible English.
