Publisher Description

The experiments of both Capitalism and Communism are almost complete, and they both lead to one big organization controlling everything you do.

In 1925, when this book was first published, it was true, and it is even truer today.

If you desire an alternative, consider this book, which considers Distributism, a philosophy whereby the actual people own the actual means of production, and produce and sustain themselves with it.

A philosophy summed up in Chesterton's famous proposal of "Three acres and a cow" as being catalyst to an ideal peasant state.

For such a simple idea, it has proven very contrary to the ideas of those in power, which is to say, to those who want power.

But for the rest of us, for the sane humans who desire peace and liberty, this book is a call to action against monopoly and the inevitability of global standardization, which the magazines call the Supply Chain and the Bible might call Babel and Babylon.

Narrated in an accent based upon Chesterton's own, this performance expresses Chesterton's words as he himself might have, delivering them to an audience of his time. Though the themes are timeless, the language and the illustrations very much reflect the period, and the intonation is to help the reader retain the mind of the times.

About G. K. Chesterton

Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936) published numerous works which include compilations of his voluminous journalism, novels, biographies, histories, criticism, Christian apologetics, poetry, and plays. Many of his novels have the genuine marks of genius. His books on Dickens (for whom he had a considerable affinity) and Saint Thomas Aquinas are considered classics in their fields.
