SOMETHING USEFUL
G. K. Chesterton, the English
i author, and several literary figures j
were asked one evening what book
i they would prefer to have with them |
! if stranded on a desert isle.
“The complete works of Shakes
peare,’’ said one writer without
I hesitation.
“I’d choose the Bible,” inter
rupted another.
“How about you?” someone asked
Chesterton.
“I would choose,” replied the port
ly author, “Thomas’ Guide to Prac
tical Shipbuilding.”
