Book excerpt: * G. K. Chesterton's classic biographies, 'St. Francis of Assisi' and 'St. Thomas Aquinas', in one volume* Includes a Preface and Introduction to Chesterton and his works, by author Stephen Reuel G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936) was an English writer of every sort in which his wit could flourish and his style could shine; and whose goodness in his adventuring for truth is so lacking in the common rancour of today. 'Every heresy has been an effort to narrow the Church:' and few individuals provide such enduring rectifications for the minds and hearts of their companions, successors and fellows as did Saints Francis and Thomas Aquinas.
