This is a great little book I'm reading and I recommend it to everyone, Catholic and protestant alike:

Searching for and Maintaining Peace: A Small Treatise on Peace of Heart (Paperback)
by Jacques Philippe (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/search-handle-url/104-3844757-0031931?%5Fencoding=UTF8&search-type=ss&index=books&field-author=Jacques%20Philippe), George Driscoll (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/search-handle-url/104-3844757-0031931?%5Fencoding=UTF8&search-type=ss&index=books&field-author=George%20Driscoll) (Translator), Jannie Driscoll (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/search-handle-url/104-3844757-0031931?%5Fencoding=UTF8&search-type=ss&index=books&field-author=Jannie%20Driscoll) (Translator)

It is a very practical guide with some nice quotes from the Bible, Saints and the authors own advice. It is about, you guessed it, searching for and maintaining peace. It is fairly short, 100 pages, in fact it is more of a glorified pamphlet than a book but still a great read.

I'm finding that I am moving through it very slowly because I stop and think and pray and re-read so many parts of this book. I think I'll make this an annual thing to read it as it has very valuable advice in it.
