About this ebook
“Love is not blind...love is vigilant.” An outspoken patriot, G. K. Chesterton criticized his country as he thought necessary. In this 1915 collection of pieces written while he toiled for the War Propaganda Bureau, he takes England to task for tolerating Germany’s pre-war actions, and also for its treatment of the Irish.

Born in London, Chesterton attended St. Paul’s School before enrolling in the Slade School of Fine Art at University College.
