When two men decide to fight for their respective beliefs, they discover to their astonishment that an unbelieving world won t let them, and they find themselves partners and fugitives from the law in this steampunk satire. Penned by G.K. Chesterton in 1909, this whimsical and biting novel eerily foreshadows a world in which tolerance is the only god and all those who believe ideas are worth dying for are forced to stand together to defend freedom of speech and belief.
