Here is a storehouse of practical help for believers who dare to look honestly at themselves -- and to do what it takes to attain the deepest desire of every sincere Catholic: union with God Himself. Dom Hubert van Zeller wrote these pages to help modern souls who are striving for holiness to spot dangerous distractions and stay on the path to true knowledge of themselves . . . and of God.
Dom Hubert van Zeller lived a life of spiritual adventure and holy renunciation. He was born in Egypt when that nation was a British protectorate, and entered the Benedictine novitiate at age nineteen. His soul thirsted for an austere way of life; at one point he even left the Benedictines to enter a strict Carthusian monastery. However, he soon returned to the Benedictines. A talented sculptor as well as a writer, his artworks adorn churches in Britain and the United States. He was a friend of the great Catholic writers Msgr. Ronald Knox and Evelyn Waugh, and is the author of Holiness: A Guide for Beginners, Holiness for Housewives, and Spirit of Penance, Path to God.
