Uncommon Sense

G. K. Chesterton expert, Dale Alquist, has just released his new book which is ‘the missing Chesterton book’— in effect, the Chesterton autobiography, a biography in the sense that Chesterton has written about Shakespeare, Dickens, and others. The Complete Thinker is a short course in thinking, and an homage to the Apostle of Common Sense.
