Distributism, Chesterton's "The Outline of Sanity" is a Place to Start

At the October meeting of the Chillicothe Chesterton Society we, both of us, decided we'd talk about Distributism at the November meeting. So I asked Richard Aleman, a Facebook Friend and the president of The Society for Distributism, to recommend a book to get us started. He and Sean Dailey recommended Chesterton's "What's Wrong With the World" and "The Outline of Sanity". They also recommended Hilare Belloc's "The Servile State". I've got the first two books and will have to order Belloc's. There are also a few blogs and web sites that have a lot of information. In fact I found it overwhelming, so I'm going to concentrate on the first two books as I get started learning about Distributism.
