Description
ESSAYS, JOURNALS, LETTERS & OTHER PROSE WORKS. In a popular series of articles initially published in the "Daily News" in 1909, the distinguished journalist and creator of Father Brown sought to celebrate the everyday objects and activities which are frequently taken for granted and yet which enrich life inestimably. "On Tremendous Trifles" is an uplifting tour of the preoccupations of one of the pre-eminent writers of his time, and as such a valuable insight into daily life in the early twentieth century.
