G. K. Chesterton’s celebrity priest-detective returns in The Incredulity of Father Brown (1926), the third of five collections of short stories featuring Father Brown. The book begins with reports of Father Brown’s death in 'The Resurrection of Father Brown' and includes the popular tales 'The Curse of the Golden Cross,' 'The Doom of the Darnaways,' and 'The Ghost of Gideon Wise.' Father Brown employs his legendary intuition to solve a raft of perplexing crimes and mysteries with his characteristic self-deprecating charm. Chesterton’s wildly popular Father Brown stories-which he continued to write until his death in 1936-are among the most beloved of the detective fiction genre. This Warbler Classics edition includes an extensive biographical timeline.
