I’ve been involved in Chesterton groups (and running one) since about 1997. After finding connections between Chesterton and Fr. Dudley, I started reading Fr. Dudley in 2012. Unable to find any biography, organization, or experts on Fr. Dudley, I started researching, and first gave presentations to local Chesterton groups comparing and contrasting the two authors in 2014.
Meanwhile, a Facebook page for Fr. Dudley had been established by a wonderful, but busy, Catholic in 2011. In 2015, I offered to largely take it over, and later that year she assisted me in developing this website. I’m indebted to many people who contributed information and insights to this project.
I’m an American Anglophile: it appears that Fr. Dudley was at least as popular in the USA as in Britain (although researching as an American has its disadvantages). Indeed, Fr. Dudley’s books are not currently in print in the UK, but they are in the USA. I have received assistance from the UK, and would welcome more.
