A history of humanity, Christ, and Christianity, this 1925 polemic famously converted C. S. Lewis from atheism. Chesterton's view of Christianity&- as a rare blend of philosophy and mythology, satisfying to both intellect and spirit&- applies to his brilliant book, which appeals to readers' heads as well as their hearts.

There are two ways of getting home; and one of them is to stay there. The other is to walk round the whole world till we come back to the same place; and I tried to trace such a journey in a story I once wrote [Manalive]. It is, however, a relief to turn from that topic to another story that I never wrote. Like every book I never wrote, it is by far the best book I have ever written. It is only too probable that I shall never write it, so I will use it symbolically here; for it was a symbol of the same truth. I conceived it as a romance of those vast valleys with sloping sides, like those along which the ancient White Horses of Wessex are scrawled along the flanks of the hills. It concerned some boy whose farm or cottage stood on such a slope, and who went on his travels to find something, such as the effigy and grave of some giant; and when he was far enough from home he looked back and saw that his own farm and kitchen–garden, shining flat on the hill–side like the colours and quarterings of a shield, were but parts of some such gigantic figure, on which he had always lived, but which was too large and too close to be seen. That, I think, is a true picture of the progress of any really independent intelligence today; and that is the point of this book.

Has religion, the church, or Christianity become convoluted? confusing? disappointing? We live in a time where church attendance is declining, where faith has become so deeply intertwined with politics, ideologies, theologies and personal opinions that it's seemingly impossible to find Truth. In all of this, we have lost sight of the center of it all—that is, the utterly enchanting person of Jesus Christ. In G.K. Chesterton’s Everlasting Man, the reader will be brought back to the very foundation of the Christian faith: that is, Jesus—His life, death and resurrection. G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936) was arguably the greatest writer and thinker of the 20th century—his keen intellect, wit, spirit and wisdom would go on to influence writers like J. R. R. Tolkien, Ernest Hemingway, C. S. Lewis, T.S. Eliot and many more. Chesterton’s ability to broach controversial and diverse topics with a sense of humor and the use of paradox has made him one of the most influential voices in both Christian and secular spheres. In Everlasting Man, Chesterton brilliantly examines the history of man from a Christ-centered perspective, appealing to the mind and heart as he points to the power, truth and supremacy of Jesus by exploring: The uniqueness of Jesus’ claims Jesus’ ability to unite religion and philosophy Jesus’ radical and shocking teaching Jesus’ affirmation of human goodness The hope of Jesus’ resurrection for all mankind Chesterton writes, "There are two ways of getting home; and one of them is to stay there. The other is to walk ’round the whole world till we come back to the same place." Everlasting Man will lead us home—to the person of Jesus, to the foundation of faith, and perhaps even to the doors of the Church.

The Everlasting Man is a Christian apologetics book written by G. K. Chesterton, published in 1925. It is, to some extent, a deliberate rebuttal of H. G.

Chesterton detailed his own spiritual journey in Orthodoxy, but in this book he tries to illustrate the spiritual journey of humanity, or at least of Western civilisation. The author Ross Douthat credits that, "Chesterton's somewhat loosey-goosey outline of history doubles as the best modern argument for Christianity I've ever read. You have to give in to the Chestertonian style, but if you do, be careful -- you might just be converted."

GK Chesterton, newspaper columnist and charismatic author of almost 80 books, was fearless in going against the mainstream. The Everlasting Man, written in 1925, is an insightful and provocative examination of the spiritual history of humankind and of Western civilization.

In The Everlasting Man, Chesterton probes this and other questions with humour, wit and insight.

First published in 1925, "The Everlasting Man" by G. K. Chesterton is a powerful argument against the theories of evolution and comparative religion. Chesterton deeply disagreed with the view of animal and human evolution popularized by "The Outline of History" written by H. G. Wells in 1919. Wells argued that human civilization was nothing more than a logical progression from simple animal life and that Jesus Christ was no more than a charismatic leader. In Wells' view, the Christian religion was merely one amongst many and nothing more. Armed with persuasive arguments and research, Chesterton sought to prove that man was far more than just a special kind of animal and that Jesus was more than just a charismatic individual. Chesterton argues that humans are quite unlike any other animal on earth and have achieved more and understand more than would be possible without the presence of a divine creator. Christianity provides its believers with a true answer to the chaos and suffering the world experienced before Jesus brought his message to his disciples. "The Everlasting Man" made a lasting impression on such respected authors as C. S. Lewis and continues to inspire the faithful with its compelling defense of Christianity.
