Tremendous Trifles

Homage to GKC and his oh so public and occasional diary on that which struck his fancy - startling facts on rather ordinary things..

God bless GKC

The well-beloved Gilbert Keith Chesterton interested himself in a plethora of subjects, from the very ordinary and every-day to God and politics and people. Sheed and Ward published Tremendous Trifles in 1909, but it is still a most delightful collection of essays. I pay homage to the man and this book because it is one which makes men think, and a thinking man can be hard to find:)

GKC was one who didn't suffer fools gladly.
Now there's a man after my own heart.
