The Everlasting Man

(G.K. Chesterton)

This may surprise, but I'm writing to you concerning your Amazon.com review of Gilbert Chesterton's "Everlasting Man." Your thorough analysis, dovetailing with C.S. Lewis' praise, has convinced me that this book is worth the while. Thank you for your clarity, energy, and accuracy.

Have a nice day,

P.S. I just read your paper on abortion. Excellent work, and carefully argued. Now I really must get back to work!!

Hi--I am a librarian at Prince of Peace Church in Phoenix, Arizona. I am impressed with the review you did for amazon. com. I wonder if you would mind if I used all, or parts of it, as a review in our monthly "Messenger" I would also like to give it to my Share-A-Book group, as I believe it would provide readers of it an excellent jumping-off point for a better reading of Chesterton's book.

Thank you for writing this and sharing it by placing it in this medium.
