THE BOOKS
During the two year study period I read more books than is usual for me.
I decided early on that as I read each book I would, if I felt drawn to, next read a book that was either referred to in the text or in the bibliography. Following a breadcrumb trail from one book to the next as far as possible and then waiting on the start of the next trail.
My first was 'With a Tender Hand' which led to 'Servant Leadership' and then to 'Journey to the East'. That trail ended and then my tutor handed me 'The Dance' which led to 'The Gift' and so on.
One small way of trying to put into practice the Quaker way of following your leadings.
I then had the idea of creating a Book Tree.
