Books on abandonment?

I am hoping someone could recommend some books on abandonment. So far I have found:

Trustful Surrender to Divine Providence by Father Jean Baptist-Saint-Jure and Bl. Claude de la Colombiere

Abandonment to Divine Providence by Jean Pierre de Caussade

Uniformity with God’s Will by St. Alphonsus Liguori

Does anyone know of more books on this subject?

Thanks in advance!
 
I have read all three books you have mentioned. A fourth book that you will love is *Holy Abandonment *by Rt. Rev. Dom Vitalis Lehodey. These are my four favorite books in the world because of the wonderful subject of self-abandonement to Divine Providence. I hope you enjoy it. I know you will!

Thanks for the recommendation!
 
Abandonment to Divine Providence by Jean Pierre de Caussade… This book has been a good read for thus far. I’ve found that it is very rich, so much so that I’ve found it good to read a small section and meditate on the passage. I also understand that this book was mentioned specifically by St. Therese of Liseaux as influencing her interior life.
 
Thanks again for the suggestions. I think I have found another:

The Heliotropium (Turning to Him) or, Conformity of the human will to the divine, by Jeremias Drexel.
 
I know this thread is old… but I would like to add one more suggestion: Into Your Hands, Father: Abandoning Ourselves to the God Who Loves Us by Fr. Wilfrid Stinissen. I enjoyed it very much. 🙂
