G.K. Chesterton

Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874¿1936), better known as G. K. Chesterton, is famous for his Father Brown detective stories and for his reasoned apologetics. Even some of those who disagree with him have recognized the wide appeal of works such as Orthodoxy and The Everlasting Man. Chesterton was one of the first defenders of orthodoxy to use humor as a weapon. Perhaps more important was his use of reason to defend faith.
