Letters of Father Chaminade, vol. 1, parts 1 and 2 (Dayton, OH: Marianist Resources Commission, 1986); vol. 2, parts. 1 and 2 (Dayton, OH: MRC, 1976).
In light of the facts as revealed in his letters, Father Chaminade’s doctrine becomes clear; his personality appears in all the simplicity of reality and in all the splendor of truth. These are definitely not the letters of a person who wishes to speak of himself. . . .
In them he provides all sorts of practical details and guidance.
