This is my personal list of resources I own that can be used to study the topics and time periods covered in Tapestry of Grace Year 1. It is not a list of resources recommended by or used in the Tapestry of Grace curriculum (although some of these resources are on their lists). Some of these are history, some are religion, some are Historical Fiction, or just Fiction that I would like to use during that year.
