Summary

The Way of Peace is a New Thought book written by James Allen. Allen was a British philosophical author recognized for his inspiring books and poesy and a forerunner of the self-help movement. Excerpt: "Upon the battlefield of the human soul two masters are ever contending for the crown of supremacy, for the kingship and dominion of the heart; the master of self, called also the "Prince of this world," and the master of Truth, called also the Father God. The master self is that rebellious one whose weapons are passion, pride, avarice, vanity, self-will, implements of darkness; the master Truth is that meek and lowly one whose weapons are gentleness, patience, purity, sacrifice, humility, love, instruments of Light."
