It is time for us to begin plowing through a complete G. K. C. book together. We will read the collection of fictional tales I drew our name from: Tales of the Long Bow. In past months' G. K. C. readings, we've noticed how well Chesterton's thoughts speak to current issues. You will find this no less the case in his fiction. Tales of the Long Bow is the wild story of a small group of truth tellers taking on a bloated, liberty and property redefining bureaucratic State (sound familiar?). Chesterton drew from the tales of Robin Hood for inspiration. You don't want to miss it!
