An easy-to-read version of Chesterton's enchanting masterpiece...Chesterton's top-ten Christian classic, Orthodoxy, is a tough book even for the most determined of readers. Obscure references combined with outdated vocabulary and verbiage leave modern readers feeling overwhelmed as they trudge through the book with a dictionary in one hand and an encyclopedia in the other. We wrote this modern translation to break down these unnecessary barriers. Here are the four basic ways in which this book was adapted:Obscure references were either explained within the text or else removed entirely if not integral to the argument,Sentence structures and vocabulary were altered to better suit modern readers,Sub-headings were added to help readers follow the flow of Chesterton’s unique arguments,And, paragraphs were broken into smaller chunks for ease of reading. The result of these adaptations is a fun and fresh reading experience void of needless struggle–both fully Chesterton and fully enjoyable. Whether you are a seasoned Chestertonian or new to the club, you are sure to enjoy this faithful and vibrant translation of one of the most important (and most entertaining) books on faith ever written.________________"It's impossible to tell you what Orthodoxy is about. It's about everything. It's a masterpiece."- Dr. Peter Kreeft, professor of philosophy at Boston CollegeThis spiritual classic which has charmed readers for more than a century does, indeed, have something to say about almost everything...In these few but powerful pages, Chesterton reveals the madness of the modern world and tells the story of how he found the key that solved it all. With humor, common sense, and a style all his own, Chesterton invites you into his whimsical journey of discovering what had been discovered before, and the unlikely way in which all his questions were answered. Orthodoxy is no ordinary book of apologetics, however, because it primarily focuses not on whether Christianity is objectively true, but whether it is the most adventurous and healthy way to live. This book isn’t a prosaic theological treatise so much as poetic pop-philosophy. It doesn’t try to build the most fool-proof arguments, but instead tries to paint the most beautiful pictures. And with the release of this new translation, you can fully absorb this Christian classic without the dense vocabulary and outdated references. It's easier than ever to join C. S. Lewis, J. R.R. Tolkien, Michael Collins, and Gandhi in the long list of those captivated by the wit and wisdom of G. K. Chesterton.
