G. K. Chesterton died today – 72 years ago

Author (of The Man Who Was Thursday and The Ballad of the White Horse) Gilbert Keith Chesterton was born on May 29, 1874 in London, England. He said, “A man who says that no patriot should attack the war until it is over... is saying no good son should warn his mother of a cliff until she has fallen." [Wow!]... Mr. Chesterton died on June 14, 1936 in Beaconsfield, England.
