"His works reveal Vogler as a man whose inclination was more devoted to active pastoral care than to his academic teaching. Besides pilgrimage booklets for pilgrims to Walldurn and Retzbach in Franconia, it is especially his frequently reprinted 'Trostbronn Maria und Joseph' (Brine of Consolation, Mary and Joseph)."
