Description: The Father Brown Omnibus by G.K. Chesterton; preface by Auberon Waugh (Dodd, Mead, 1982), 1st edition, 1st printing thus, HCDJ, Binding is a bit loosed. Some general wear all around. Tear to dust jacket. Unmarked and clean pages. Binding is still in tact and quite readable. Father Brown, one of the most quirkily genial and lovable characters to emerge from English detective fiction, first made his appearance in The Innocence of Father Brown in 1911. That first collection of stories established G.K. Chesterton's kindly cleric in the front rank of eccentric sleuths.This complete collection contains all fifty-one Father Brown stories, showing a quiet wit and compassion that has endeared him to many, while solving his mysteries by a mixture of imagination and a sympathetic worldliness in a totally believable manner.
