Christendom needs a new Chesterton. Written 90 years ago, "The Everlasting Man" confronts several fallacies popular in GK's day, including Christian Science ("Science and Health," 1875), Darwin's "triumph" ("On the Origin of Species," 1882), the reduction of Christianity to mythology by Frazer's "Golden Bough" (1890), and the post-Christian vision of H. G. Welles in "The Outline of History" (1910). Chesterton uses wit and common sense, proposing that Christianity not only would but already had triumphed over each of these, just as it had over heresies of the 4th and 5th centuries and bloody political revolutions like the French. We could all use his conviction today as Christianity faces fresh challenges like "the new atheism," militant Islam, the "triumph" of science, and the undermining of the traditional family. I have just finished listening to the Audible Books edition narrated by John Franklyn Robbins—and liking it very much. But while still listening I had already launched into the 99¢ Kindle edition so that I can underline and make notes at my leisure. This is a book to delight you the first time through and convince you the second. Delighted and convinced, I'm now shooting for understanding. Chesterton's knowledge and grasp are vast!
