The Everlasting Man
"The Everlasting Man" by G. K. Chesterton is a Christian apologetics book published in 1925. Written as a rebuttal to H. G. Wells's evolutionary view of history, Chesterton argues that humanity is fundamentally different from other animals and that Christ and Christianity are uniquely extraordinary. The work traces the spiritual journey of Western civilization, challenging the notion that religion simply fades into mythology. C. S. Lewis praised it as the best popular defense of Christianity he knew.
