G.K. Chesterton Collection
The Msgr. William Noé Field Archives & Special
Collections Center features a significant assemblage of titles written by or
about famed English Catholic journalist, poet and essayist G.K. Chesterton
(1874-1936). This library was donated to our repository through the initial
generosity of Alfred Robert Kessler, noted Chestertonian collector and
ultimately by Reverend Ian Boyd, President of the G.K. Chesterton Institute
for Faith & Culture headquartered at Seton Hall University. This particular
anthology of books will be available for research purposes through our site
with support and collaboration with the Institute at large.
