'The Flying Inn' was published in 1914. The word 'flying' in the context of the title of this book has the meaning of moving rapidly from place to place.In its visionary treatment of human interactions, and in identifying the severe threat that we face from Islam, it is indeed prophetic.In 1914, who could have imagined that Islam would become such a powerful force in England? The idea would have been utterly preposterous. And yet here we are. Scholars of Islam, such as Robert Spencer, have been barred entry into the UK, simply for having studied Islam in great depth, lectured upon it, and written books. Those ’at the top’ of society are clearly nervous of such knowledge. G.K. Chesterton shows foresight about a betrayal of this country from the top down and prescience in warning of the threat of Islam.
