Originally published in 1911, The Innocence of Father Brown is the
first of five official collections of short stories focused on the
crime-solving Roman Catholic. He is an endearing character often
compared to another famous detective, Sherlock Holmes. Father Brown
is a devout Roman Catholic priest who has a penchant for detective
work. He first appears in the short story, "The Blue Cross," which
was previously published in 1910 in the Saturday Evening Post.
Father Brown stumbles across unusual cases that require his
distinct reasoning and deduction skills. He's often described as a
short man with a stocky figure who can see into the heart of evil.
His first outing, The Innocence of Father Brown, features 12
stories including "The Hammer of God," "The Invisible Man" and "The
Sins of Prince Saradine." The Innocence of Father Brown is the
inaugural edition of G.K. Chesterton's delightful detective series.
It consists of many famous cases and characters including frequent
collaborator, Hercule Flambeau. This book is a great introduction
to these delightful stories that are fueled by heart and humanity.
With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset
manuscript, this edition of The Innocence of Father Brown is both
modern and readable.
