Gilbert Keith Chesterton

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Maisie Ward's biography of Gilbert Keith Chesterton has long been a cornerstone in Chesterton studies, as well as in the publishing house she and her husband, Frank Sheed, founded in 1926. Originally published in 1942, just six years after Chesterton's untimely death, this book combines Ward's unique perspective as the author's friend and publisher with an examination of his personal correspondence and interviews with his closest friends and family. Here are Chesterton's childhood and school days, the friendship and foolery of youth, his early theological development, high spirited love letters, the variety and richness of his travel and life abroad, his lectures, his writings, and his indominable spirit. A Sheed & Ward Classic, this re-release of Ward's definitive biography is sure to delight existing "Chestertonians" and introduce a new generation to one of Catholicism's brightest lights. From the new introduction by Andrew Greeley: "This book had a decisive impact on me and on my life when I read it at the age of sixteen-and not merely because my fictional detective Blackie Ryan is an American cousin of GKC's Father Brown. Ms. Ward's biography introduced me not only to a world of literature of which I had been unaware, but to a perspective on literature and life which was enormously attractive because it confirmed many of the insights, instincts, inclinations, biases, and loves which were knocking around in my adolescent skull. I have been a Chestertonian all my life in part because I had been one without knowing it even before I read Ms. Ward's biography.

Children's Children

By: Maisie Mosco

From “the undisputed queen of her genre,” a family saga continuing the story of two Jewish families in northern England bonded by a history of hardship (The Jewish Chronicle). Shortly into the twentieth century, the Sandberg and Moritz families were thrown together in their adopted city of Manchester. Now, the grandchildren of those immigrants are on the cusp of adulthood and the cracks are starting to show. The family elders are outraged at how little their offspring appreciate the struggles they faced: the arrival in England, penniless, not speaking the language, the rise of Hitler and the horror of the Holocaust. Decades after their forbears arrived in the country, the young people care most of all about being like their friends, and having freedom to live their lives the way they choose. The divide has never been greater. Can the older generation move with the times in order to keep their families together? The third book in the Almonds and Raisins series from the international bestselling author Maisie Mosco, perfect for fans of Jessica Stirling and Emma Hornby.Praise for the writing of Maisie Mosco“Once in every generation or so a book comes along which lifts the curtain.” —The Guardian “Full of freshness and fascination.” —Manchester Evening News

Period Power is the handbook to periods and hormones that will leave you wondering why the hell nobody told you this sooner.

Maisie Hill, a women's health practitioner, knows the power of working with the menstrual cycle and refuses to accept this theory. Instead, Maisie believes that our hormones are there to serve us and, if utilized correctly, can be used to help you get what you want out of life. Yes, we are hormonal, and that's a very good thing. This revolutionary book reveals everything you need to know about taking control of your menstrual cycle and outlines The Cycle Strategy to help us perform at our best, throughout our cycle. In Period Power you will discover how to: - maximise your natural superpowers each month while making adjustments for the darker days, and use Maisie's favourite tips to improve them - identify your personal patterns, powers and pitfalls for each phase of the menstrual cycle - plan your month to perform at your best in all aspects of your life - figure out if you have a hormonal imbalance and what to do about it. Period Power is a no-nonsense guide with all the tools you need to improve your menstrual health.

By: Maisie Ganzler

Five invaluable lessons for doing sustainability right, doing it profitably, and getting the credit you deserve. Did the title of this book get your attention? Good. Because as silly as it is, the idea behind it is serious, earnest, and authentic: you can't become a sustainable operation if you're doing the right things in the wrong place or at the wrong time. Many businesses are in the dark about how to actually do better for the planet and the people in their company and their supply chain while also growing their margin. Some believe it can't be done. But it can. Maisie Ganzler has done it, and now she's going to show you how to build sustainability into your business, too. Her five big lessons come from three decades of successes and failures leading a $1.7 billion corporation toward a more sustainable future. Join Ganzler as she takes you to pig farms and boardrooms, factories and farmers' markets, teaching you not only how to operate more sustainably but also how to get the credit you deserve for doing it. No matter what industry you're in, Ganzler's stories from the front lines in the food business will inspire and educate you on what it takes to get sustainability right.

151 Things God Can't Do

By: Maisie Sparks

A delightful and uplifting book that surprisingly reveals God's unique promises for each of us. Think God can do anything? Think again. God is all-knowing, all-powerful, and limitless, but despite these characteristics, God is still incapable of many things: things that are against His very nature. In this creative and uplifting book, discover God's nature and His incredible love for YOU. You will be encouraged to know that God can't deceive you, God can't be wrong, God can't allow evil to go unpunished, God can't leave you unfulfilled, God's love can't quit, and so much more. With scripture to back up each statement, you will find relief and joy in the things God can't do.

Almonds and Raisins

By: Maisie Mosco

A family’s survival depends on their unbreakable bond. First in the trilogy of new beginnings and lasting dreams from the “undisputed queen of her genre” (The Jewish Chronicle). The Sandberg family arrive in England having fled Russia to avoid persecution. It is 1905, and in their new home of Manchester they soon discover that hardships can come in many forms. It’s a friendship with their neighbors, the Moritz family, that finally makes them feel at ease. As the two families become increasingly intertwined, it is eldest son David who finds the culture of his new country encourages him to rebel against his mother’s wishes. Sarah Sandberg has ruled the family with a quiet authority but now faces the challenge of a son who wants to shake off duty in his own desire for love and freedom. In the years ahead, the Sandbergs will face even greater challenges. It is only their enduring spirit that sees them overcome the odds to find sanctity, and even joy, as they survive each twist and turn of life. A much-loved novel from an internationally bestselling author, perfect for fans of Emma Hornby and Sheelagh Kelly.
