In this collection of essays, G. K. Chesterton matches his wits against some of the greatest issues of the 20th century. Imperialism, politics, education, and feminism are put to debate as Chesterton criticises the government of the day, while also speaking to a modern era. A testament to one of the most prolific writers of the 20th century, 'What's Wrong with the World' proves Chesterton as a master essayist whose work bears the scrutiny of historians and philosophers. Essential reading for students of British history, Chesterton bears the soul of the English spirit and puts its politicians to shame.
