Christopher Holdsworth's own experience led him to become
interested in the monastic tradition, and to spend much of his life
in learning more about it as a mediaeval historian. In this book he
presents aspects of that tradition which may be useful for Quakers.
Starting from outward things, like stability, humility, obedience
and the regular attendance at public worship, the author moves
towards other sides of what the tradition calls the exploration of
the heart, which he calls inner space: namely attentive reading of
the Bible, and prayer. 'We, like Benedict's monks, need to let the
whole of ourselves be irradiated with the Spirit, so that, in
George Fox's memorable phrase, our lives preach.'
