Thanks for the link. I really prefer, for a lot of reasons, to read anything of much length on paper rather than on a computer screen. However, if there is something I really want to read and that is the only way I can do it, I can tolerate it.
I want to clarify one thing, though. What I said about Evangelical bookstores not carrying Chesterton's works (or at least not featuring them) was not intended to give the idea that I couldn't get hold of Chesterton's writings. It's just that I've been much more aware of Lewis's writings through the years because they are featured so prominently, while Chesterton's have been sort of "below the radar" since, although I seen him referred to regularly, I seldom see his works on the shelves. But there are other sources.
In fact, I just checked the online catalogue of the Hong Kong Public Libraries, and they have about 30 of his works. Some are his mysteries, of course, and some are works of literary criticism, but there were some apologetic works and some books of his essays in the list. Of course, the websites you recommended have lots more, but I can't read everything at once.
