A Gleaming Cohort by G.K. Chesterton - SOLD

This tightly-bound little hardcover, published by Methuen & Co., highlights previous work by Chesterton, offering essays, sketches, introductions, and portions of his fiction. There is a small inscription on the inside of the cover, which reads "Best Wishes/ from Jock" and there is a small date which reads "X May 1936". The pages are in excellent condition considering its age. It includes work from Charles Dickens; All Things Considered; Tremendous Trifles; Alarms and Discursions; The Ballad of The White Horse; A Miscellany of Men; The Flying Inn; Wine, Water, and Song; The Uses of Diversity; and Fancies versus Fads. It could have been titled "The Best of-", or "A Retrospective" but Chesterton had more soul than that. The book is now sold.
