Orthodoxy by G. K. Chesterton, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. Published in 1908, G. K. Chesterton's Orthodoxy is the story of how he came to the Christian faith, written as a reply to critics of his earlier book Heretics. With dazzling paradox and humour he argues that orthodox belief is not dull or narrow but the most thrilling adventure of all. A classic of Christian thought, still read and quoted around the world.
About this leather-bound edition
Each copy is bound by hand in genuine leather over sturdy boards, with decorative tooling and gold-tone foil lettering on the spine. Natural variation in grain, shade and foil impression is part of the character of every handmade book, so no two copies are exactly alike.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
