Gilbert Keith Chesterton was born in London in 1874 and died in 1936. He began his career as a journalist and literary critic. He was known to be very absent-minded and the story goes that since he usually missed his train, he did much of his writing in train stations. Chesterton, who converted to Roman Catholicism at the age of 48, was a prolific writer who published on a broad range of subjects, including theology and land distribution policies. He remains best known today for the Father Brown detective stories, publishing over fifty of them in his lifetime, from 1910 onwards. This clumsy and unassuming little Catholic priest is one of the earliest and most endearing sleuths of British literature.
