He is most notable for his Catholic faith, which had a strong impact on his works, and his writing collaboration with G. K. Chesterton.Included in this audio library are famous books suchas:- Cautionary Tales (verses written from the perspective ofa ridiculously stuffy and pedantic adult lecturing children on the inevitable catastrophes that result from improper behavior, such as "Jim, who ran away from his nurse, and was eaten by a lion", "Matilda, who told lies and was burnt to death", "Henry King, who chewed bits of string and was early cut off in dreadful agonies", and "Rebecca, who slammed doors for fun and perished miserably")- Europe and the Faith (his effort to prove that it was theCatholic Faith that made Europe)- The Servile State (a criticism of capitalism and socialism, and his vision of distributism which he believed revailed in Europe during Christendom)- The Path To Rome (the delightful story of the pilgrimage Belloc made on foot to Rome in order to fulfill a vow he had made to see all Europe which the Christian Faith has saved)- The French Revolution (his determination to provide aclear background of the political theory of the French Revolution, which was a sort of religious creed, supplying the motive force of the entire thing)- The Free Press (discussing what he believed to be theevil of the great modern Capitalist Press, its function tomisinform and morally corrupt, and how it puts power into the hands of people who are dishonorable and with questionable character)He wrote several books that address many various and interesting topics, including First and Last, On Nothing and Kindred Subjects, On Something, On Anything, and This, That and the Other, all included in this audio collection.Download the app for free and listen to sample chapters before deciding to upgrade to the full version of this audio library.These MP3's are streamed to your iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad, not downloaded, so they take up no storage space on your device.
