A large man – 6’ 42 and 21st in weight he was apt to be forgetful in that delightful way that the British sometimes are – a telegram home to his wife saying he was in one place but where should he actually be. But he was prolific in many other areas; he wrote plays, essays, loved to debate and wrote hundreds of poems. Here we bring you The Victorian Age In Literature. Chesterton died of congestive heart failure on 14th June 1936 and is buried in Beaconsfield just outside of London.
