About this listen

This is a top-quality audiobook of G. K. Chesterton's biography of St. Thomas Aquinas.

Etienne Gilson, leading scholar of Aquinas, says, "I consider it as being, without possible comparison, the best book ever written on Saint Thomas. The few readers who have spent twenty or thirty years in studying St. Thomas Aquinas, and who, perhaps, have themselves published two or three volumes on the subject, cannot fail to perceive that the so-called 'wit' of Chesterton has put their scholarship to shame."

A great sketch of a great thinker

I love Chesterton's skills as a writer and thinker. My problem is that the beauty of the prose can get in the way of the concentration on the ideas. My dislike had to do with the economics. The Scholastics were much better on usury and trade than either Chesterton or Aquinas.

Not my style

Fascinated with Aquinas but got frustrated and completely stressed out listening to Chesterton. Made a short story way too long.
My brother loved it , just not my style. It was clearly more about Chesterton than Aquinas. Couldn’t finish , totally stressed me out... lol.
