Excerpt from The Way of Interior Peace, Dedicated to Our Lady of Peace
The Way of Interior Peace, by Father de Lehen, S.J., is regarded as an excellent book for priests, religious, and the laity who wish to serve God in peace of heart and mind. In it directors of souls can thoroughly learn how to conduct their penitents through the devious ways of casuistic troubles and difficulties. Many persons of good will, but of a scrupulous, doubtful, or erroneous conscience, will find a true guide and consoler in this book, so calculated to impart tranquillity, contentment, and love of God to hearts agitated by anxieties of conscience. Appropriate quotations of Holy Scripture, principles and opinions of notable theologians, of experienced directors of souls, of prominent saints and doctors of the Church, are so well arranged and linked together that the book commends itself both in form and substance.
It is attractive by its clear, simple, concise style, adapted to the capacity of the learned and the unlearned.
The work was originally written by a holy, learned, and experienced director of souls. It has, besides, been recommended by the venerable and zealous Bishop A. Rass, of Strasburg, lately deceased. The book has not only been highly appreciated ever since its appearance in French, but also since its translation into German. The fact of its having reached ten editions in German since 1870, and that at a time in which thousands of religious were exiled from their fatherland by the Kulturkampf, and thousands of priests deprived of their salaries by unjust laws, is of itself sufficient proof of its intrinsic worth and usefulness.
The English translation from the German, which is an improved arrangement of the French original, commends itself by its fidelity to the original text, as well as by its idiomatic and easy style.
