Chesterton Books Read

The March/April issue of Gilbert contained Part II of Geir Hasnes' article "How Much Did Chesterton Write?"

I read it with interest. Very comprehensive. Very challenging!

I have many of the books and collections he mentions - I tend to collect all the books I can of favorite writers - but I wondered how many of them I have actually read. Of these I am certain:

Saint Thomas Aquinas: The Dumb Ox 
St. Francis of Assisi

Orthodoxy 
The Everlasting Man

The Poet and the Lunatics 
The Scandal of Father Brown 
The Secret of Father Brown 
The Innocence of Father Brown
The Incredulity of Father Brown
The Wisdom of Father Brown

The Man Who Was Thursday 
The Flying Inn 
The Ball and the Cross 
Manalive 
The Napoleon of Notting Hill

The Surprise 
The Judgement of Dr. Johnson 
The Turkey and the Turk 
What You Won’t 
Magic 

The Ballad of the White Horse 
Lepanto: With Explanatory Notes and Commentary 
The Wild Knight and Other Poems
The Coloured Lands 
G. K. Chesterton’s Early Poetry

Autobiography 

What's Wrong With the World
In Defense of Sanity: The Best Essays of G. K. Chesterton
Chesterton in Black and White
Tremendous Trifles
The Well and the Shallows

There are also some individual essays and poems that I have read. 

Among my reading goals for this year is to read at least one book by him that I have not yet read. I have read several plays so far, but not a book per se. Fortunately, I have several shelves of books by him!
