The Flying Inn is a curious novel written by Gilbert K. Chesterton set in a future England where a bizarre form of "Progressive" Islam has triumphed and dominates the political and social life of the country. According to the Distributist Review: "Perhaps prophetical more so than prosaic the Flying Inn is one of those books which should rank among the classics."

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

As my children grew and prepared to make the break from my nest I started to wonder just how prepared they really were. I watched children and young adults in my community and I realized they could use some guidance. I hope to enlighten those that are getting ready to enter the adult world and work force for the first time, or for those that are making another attempt, to prepare them for the pitfalls they will face and to help them deal with these problems in positive ways. The world we live in today is not the same that we lived in 30 years ago. The technology, the speed of communication and the expectations have changed the way an adult must face the world. I hope to give inspiration, information and suggestions that will allow young adults to avoid some of those mistakes and walk confidently into their future.
