Chesterton Narrator: Stewart Crank Format: mp3 Length: 7 hrs and 11 mins Release date: 01-20-20 Ratings: 4 out of 5 stars, 9 ratings Genres: Civilization Publisher's Summary: A Short History of England (1917) is Chesterton’s commentary on the philosophical, social, and religious history of England. The book focuses on those highlights that have shaped the nation, and is presented in the author’s customary wit. Having displayed strong Roman Catholic leanings at this time of his life, the author equates Anglicanism with atheism, but does commend the upliftment achieved by the Wesleyans. Chesterton views the story of England as the story of robber barons who became an aristocracy and who concealed their rise to power and hegemony through Parliament.
