Club of Queer Trades

With all 32 original illustrations by the authorBritish writers have long enjoyed inventing preposterous clubs with eccentric members, unusual qualifications for membership, and zany rules of behavior; G. K. Chesterton was no exception. Here, six marvelously funny episodes with improbable plots revolving around just such an institution are made especially pleasing by Chesterton's vivid descriptions of late Victorian London, sly pokes at the legal system, and characteristic gift for delicious nonsense.Chesterton, G. K. is the author of 'Club of Queer Trades' with ISBN 9780742630093 and ISBN 0742630099.
