His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia ) Not lonely tonight baohaibo Adventure：The Exploits of Juve By: Marcel Allain (1885-1969)The Shaving of Shagpat By: George Meredith (1828-1909)The Invasion By: William Le Queux (1864-1927)Isobel By: James Oliver Curwood (1878-1927)The Great K and A Train Robbery By: Paul Leicester Ford (1865-1902)With Frederick The Great: A Story of the Seven Years' War By: George Alfred Henty (1832-1902)Gulliver's Travels, Told to the Children By: John Lang (1816-1864)The Art of Travel By: Sir Francis Galton (1822-1911)War By: Pierre Loti (1850-1923)The Recollections of Rifleman Harris By: Benjamin Harris (1781-1858)Red Men and White By: Owen Wister (1860-1938)The Luck Of Roaring Camp And Other Sketches By: Bret Harte (1836-1902)Some Rambling Notes of an Idle Excursion By: Mark Twain (1835-1910)The Game By: Jack London (1876-1916)King Arthur's Knights: The Tales Retold for Boys & Girls By: Henry Gilbert (1868-1937)The Adventures of Mr. What Then Say You Keith & Tunisha Barnes Welcome to the show!
