June 14, 1936 - Prolific Author G. K. Chesterton Dies

CHT

One of the most prolific Christian writers of the 20th century is G. K. Chesterton. Author of one hundred books, two hundred short stories, and over four thousand essays, it is a wonder that he is not more of a household name. He authored the Father Brown mystery series and influenced men like Gandhi and C.S. Lewis with his writings. One of his most remembered quotes is “Impartiality is a pompous name for indifference, which is an elegant name for ignorance.” He died in London on June 14, 1936.
