The Wisdom of Father Brown is a 1928 collection of mystery short stories by English writer G. K. Chesteron.

The stories include:
- 'The Absence of Mr Glass' - 'The Paradise of Thieves' - 'The Duel of Dr Hirsch' - 'The Man in the Passage' - 'The Mistake of the Machine' - 'The Head of Caesar' - 'The Purple Wig' - 'The Perishing of the Pendragons' - 'The God of the Gongs' - 'The Salad of Colonel Cray' - 'The Strange Crime of John Boulnois' - 'The Fairy Tale of Father Brown'
A fantastic collection of classic mystery short stories not to be missed by fans and collectors of Chesterton's seminal work.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874 - 1936) was an English philosopher, theologian, writer, and critic. Born in London in 1874, he studied at the Slade School of Art and began to work as a freelance journalist after graduation. Over the course of his life, his literary output was incredibly diverse and highly prolific, ranging from philosophy and ontology to art criticism and detective fiction. However, he is probably best-remembered for his Christian apologetics, most notably in Orthodoxy (1908) and The Everlasting Man (1925).
