G.K. Chesterton's "A Miscellany of Men" is a collection of essays on various topics written by one of the English language's finest essayists. Chesterton covers a wide range of timely truths and makes insightful and illuminating observations in the Miscellany. It is a snapshot of thought on twentieth-century Europe (and the world) by one of Europe's sharpest wits and ablest pens, encompassing subjects ranging from literature to philosophy, history to social criticism. This book includes 39 brief sketches of individuals, each of whom illustrates an aspect of contemporary society, with chapter titles ranging from "The Miser and His Friends" to "The Red Reactionary," "The Separatist and Sacred Things" to "The New Theologian" and "The Romantic in the Rain." Social, historical, and religious thought all play important roles in this book, which addresses a wide range of issues from the sane and healthy perspective of Chesterton's integral, unapologetic Catholic Faith. The book is notable for its intent to chastise some of capitalism's unpleasant truths while also condemning inhumane, bureaucratic socialism.
