Chesterton wrote several writings for the London Daily News, which are collected in the book All Things Considered. While some of the issues are entertaining, some seem to be a bit serious. The book is a consolidation of twenty-five chapters including a chapter on fairy-tales. The reader will undoubtedly be astonished, amused, and enlightened by Chesterton's trademark wit and insights in the other chapters on a variety of topics. The narrative includes so many turns and twists that it may keep a reader engaged. This version of All Things Considered is aesthetically pleasing, with a professionally typeset manuscript and a new cover.
