The Complete Father Brown
G. K Chesterton, Auberon Waugh
Hardcover (Dodd, Mead, Jan. 1, 1982)Dust jacket notes: "Reissued with a new Preface by the novelist and critic Auberon Waugh, this omnibus contains all the fifty-one famous Father Brown detective stories published in a single volume for the first time. Of all the great fictional detectives, none is more honestly liked than this jovial keen-witted little priest, of whom Agatha Christie wrote: 'Father Brown has always been one of my favorite sleuths...He is one of the few figures in detective fiction who can be enjoyed for his own sake, whether you are a detective fan or note.' Ellery Queen attested to his longevity, saying: 'Father Brown is one of the few characters in all fiction who - through his humanity, sagacity, personal charm and credible genius - is likely to survive the fickle years.' The reissuance of this omnibus is a testament to that survival."
