AMERICAN FREEMASONS (TABBERT) M10 (2)
What exactly is Freemasonry? Why have three centuries of American men - - from
Paul Revere and Ben Franklin to Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, Harry
Truman and Thurgood Marshall - - - have been drawn to its rituals and symbols, and
precepts? And why did John Quincy Adams call it “a seed of evil, which can never
produce any good? American Freemasons is the perfect introduction to
understanding a society that, while shrouded in mystery, has played and integral
role in the lives and communities of millions of Americans and in American history
itself.

A PILGRIM‟S PATH (ROBINSON) M10 (3)
Freemasonry has never lacked for detractors. Enemies of the organization have
included the Roman Catholic Church, the Communist Party, and the Nazis. It has
been denounced by popes and kings, by the ignorant5 and by those who felt
threatened by the fraternity‟s reputation for secrecy. In this book Robinson
relates the history of the attacks and takes on the anti-Masonic evangelists such
as Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell, Dr. James Holly, and others who currently want
to destroy Freemasonry.

BLACK SQUARE AND COMPASS (WALKES) M90 1
The only book I have read on this subject. It is well worth the read, if for no other
reason than the historical aspects of this group of Freemasons.
THE BOOK OF FATE (MELTZER) M19 1
Another of those, "You can't tell a book by its cover", problems. The "a" in "Fate is
a square and compass. ipso nudnik, a book with a Masonic theme right? Wrong!
No lengthy report is needed. the bad guy could have been any wacko of, pro
environment, anti-thieving drug companies, pro-global warming, pro Choice if it
means abortion - whatever.
The story line did not need a Masonic "run". But, what the hey, which monkey's ass is
getting higher on the pole by willing enablers and thus more exposed and thus a
2

more financially rewarding bed ready to spout flowers or weeds in every direction
for those who like to "be with it, donca know".
The author brings Thomas Jefferson into the mix as well but is on the side of those
who deny he was a Mason. (Since no one has come up with any minutes with his name
therein from any Lodge in the known world, then or now; I say don't we have
enough proven hot shots, Kings, Prince, potentates and all round good
fellows that we need to bewail the loss of Jefferson and Lincoln?) Get real.
You want to read it - go ahead, but I regret I wasted $15.00 on it. And, no, I'm not
going to make it easy for you to do so by giving you the ISBN etc. information.
Dale Lock PM
Librarian & just another of the all round good fellows.
BORN IN BLOOD (ROBINSON) M10 2
Believed by many to be the book on the origins of Freemasonry. An absolute must
for all Masons. Written by a man who was not a Mason but was later made one on
his death bed by the Grand Master of Ohio Masons.
BROTHER TRUMAN (ROBERTS) M10 1
Brother Truman, Grand Master of Missouri Masons, soldier, President of the
United States of America, a man with a philosophy anyone can emulate. He was a
man who loved his family, his country. Politics per se do not enter into this story. A
great read.
THE BROTHERHOOD (KNIGHT) M19 2
If this is not the most virulent, deceitful book about Freemasonry or freemasons
then it will be the second. For instance - it claims that Jack the Ripper was a Mason
.The Italian section does not show that Lodge P2 was banned by its own Grand
Lodge and by other Grand Lodges. Should be read if for no other reason than to
learn how far some will go to discredit the Fraternity
THE BROTHERHOOD OF THE ROSEY CROSS (WAITE) M12.09 2
Compared to the Freemasons with whom they are sometimes confused, Rosicrucians
seem like explorers at the heart of a mystery. The author makes a case for this
order predating Freemasonry.
THE BUILDERS (NEWTON) M10 3
Divided into parts; Prophecy, History Interpretation, with a section added
concerning the Fraternity during those dark years from 1914 to 1948 page 289 is a
good summation of a Mason. One of the few books sold world wide in many
languages.

Other Masonic Histories have dealt at length with the more famous personalities
known to have been Freemasons from the beginnings of the first armed
confrontations to the drafting and signing of the Constitution. But there were
many more Freemasons who made significant contributions within their hometown
or colony that were a part of the whole. Treats of all of the beginnings of all of
the Lodges in the thirteen Colonies, as well as those outside the Colonies. A must
for anyone desiring to know where it all started, and more importantly the who
and how.

CONVERSATIONS ON FREEMASONRY (COIL) M03 1
Coil takes the house of Masonry and examines it room by room, clearing the
cobwebs from the corners and sweeps the trash from the floors exploding many
of the moss covered myths and opens the windows.
THE COURTS AND FREEMASONRY (CERZA) M30 1
Freemasonry has always had, and continues to have, those who would destroy it by
using the court system as their weapon. This book covers many cases settled in the
“lesser‟ courts as well as those that traveled all the way to the Supreme Court..
Anyone, Mason or not, will learn how protected freedoms, such as freedom of
assembly, and property rights are upheld while the vow to keep a Brothers secrets
as his own, at trial, are not upheld.
THE CRAFT AND ITS SYMBOLS (ROBERTS) M03 2
Probably one of the best known books in our Lodges. The Southern California
Research Lodge makes these available to all Lodges as a gift for the Entered
Apprentice Mason. Well written and readable.

The author says, “In prior publications I received a number of letters citing
historians who appear to disagree with some point I have made. I can only defend
myself by stating that when , for example, two European differ with each other,
and Arab chroniclers disagree with both of them, I can only ponder awhile then
pick the point of view that makes most sense . Ancient chroniclers are hard to
draw from because they usually wrote to please a pope, or cater to a king. ”This
book makes imminent sense, as does all of his works.
DYNAMIC FREEDOMS (WATTS, Et Al) M10 10
Various compilers have worked on this book, keeping it up to our times. A must for
every Mason. Many Lodges make this book available, through the good offices of
the Scottish Rite, free, to all newly raised Master Masons. It is hoped that all will
read it.
EMERGENCE OF THE MYSTICAL (CLAUSEN) M10.11 3
Presents the coming transition when science and religion will be melded into an

The Title page states that this is, “An Authentic Story of Freemasonry.”
Published in 1920 The reader will make his own judgment.
FOREIGN COUNTRIES (CLAUDY) M14 2
One of Claudy‟s finest works. It is especially good for the young Mason who is
trying to “get a handle” on Masonry. It is suggested that you read the last chapter
first and then read it again when you come to the end of the book.. Highly
Inspirational.

FREEDOM JUST AROUND THE CORNER (McDougall) M10 1
“The creation of the United States of America is the central event of the past four
hundred years” declares the Author. He then proceeds to prove it. The section on
the part that Freemasonry played in the creation begins on page 328 and is a fine
piece of work; worth the price of the book by its self. This new history covers the
years 1585 thru 1828.
THE FREEMASON AT WORK (CARR) M14.2 2
During his term as editor of the Transactions of the Quatuor Coronati Lodge of
Research, one of the author‟s most important and constant duties was to answer
questions on every aspect of Freemasonry. This book is a collection of the best of
those twelve years questions and answers. The origin of the Points
of Fellowship will create additional interest.
FREEMASONRY (PIATIGORSKY) M03 1
The Study of A Phenomenon. Piatigorsky was born in Russia and emigrated to
Britain in th early 1970‟s. He is Professor of South Asia in the School of Oriental
and African Studies, at the University of London. His previous writings include The

oneself. With 133 illustrations covering everything up to and including “Adoptive
Masonry.‟

A noted clairvoyant‟s absorbing, in-depth study of Freemasonry and the Mystery

the “Mystery-bond” that appears in disparate locations at one and the same time
frames.
FREEMASONRY AND ITS ETIQUETTE (CAMPBELL-EVERDEN)
M14 2
Among the many facets of the Fraternity covered are: Who are fit and proper to be
made a Mason, What is a Officers and their Duties, Concordant Bodies, Lodge of
Freemasons, Ritual, The Ceremonies The Lodge .
FREEMASONRY AND ROMAN CHATHOLICISM (HAYWOOD) M19.43 1
In 1738 Pope Leo XIII sent out an Encyclical which not only condemned
Freemasonry in all parts of the world but, “- - - - -declared that the sect of Masons
is established against law and honesty, and is equally a danger to Christianity as
well as society -----”. Every Roman Catholic was ordered to assist in the destruction
of Freemasonry. If a man was a Mason he must be made to cease to be one - - - failing
that he was to be persecuted. This book has the replies to the charges as well as
the verbatim Bulls published.
FREEMASONRY AND THE BIRTH OF MODERN SCIENCE (LOMAS) M02 1
This book will make you reassess many of the key events of the 1600‟s and will
show how Freemasonry, supported by Charles II, was the guiding force behind the
birth of modern science, under the cover of the Royal Society.
FREEMASONRY FOR WIVES AND OTHERS (HENDERSON) M17.994 1
The Australian view of what others should know about Freemasonry. Imported
extensively in the U.S.
FREEMASONRY IN AMERICAN HISTORY (ROBERTS) M10 3
Whatever faults one my find with this book, separation of Masonry from the
general history of the United States will not be one of them. One of the all time
great books on Freemasonry. Classed with Born in Blood as one that must be read
by Masons.
FREEMASONRY THROUGH SIX CENTURIES 2 Vol‟s. (COIL) M03 1 Set of 2
6

Coil spent 25 years in the writing of these two volumes. He says, “Something must
account for the general ignorance which exists among the Craft about the history
of the Society. --------------------The Entered Apprentice, in particular, hungers for it but
asking for bread, he is given a stone. I believe and hope that these pages will supply
a want.
THE FREEMASONS, A HISTORY OF THE WORLD‟S MOST POWERFUL SECRET SOCIETY
(RIDLEY) M10 1
The Freemasons by Jasper Ridley
ISBN 1-55970-601-5, Arcade Publishing Inc.
The book starts out with the news that London Bridge was first built of wood, but
gives no date of the original construction or perhaps it is not known. It was
destroyed in 1176. It was then decided that the replacement bridge should be made
of stone.
The people made up a song about the new bridge titled “London Bridge is Falling
Down”, The song centers about the FACT that sometime between 1176 and the
completion year of 1209 (About the same time as the Templars lost Acre) a young
virgin (my fair lady) was placed alive in one of the columns and sealed up by the
MASONS as an offering to God to get Him to stay His hand at another destruction.
It must have worked because when the bridge, 623 years later, in 1832, was
dismantled it was only because none of the newer ships could get under its spans.
No bones of any type were found and one could possibly be justified in thinking
that that should have put the matter to rest; however, some 800 years later, from
1176 to as late as 1999, anti-masons still tell that tale as truth..
From that point in the book things continue apace through the hatred of the Craft,
through Chapters on the Heretics, Templars, French, German Masonry to the mideast
and the “fact that the Templars” had nothing to do with Freemasonry (which I
personally do not buy for a minute) to a really great set of explanations of that
sometimes rough and rugged road called Freemasonry that has been traveled by
so many with so much influence on world events from the 1500‟s to the present
day.
Reaching the latter portion of the book is well worth the wading through to
reach the chapters on “The Assault on Masonry”, “Modern Masonry in the World”,
“- - In England”, “- - -In the United States”, etcetera.
This is the first time I have been able to find a fine collection of what I have know in
small pieces here and there; that being that there has been a very small amount of
some real bastards who were able to slip into Masonry. This is countered by
literally millions of regular guys, as well as geniuses who rose to become the
finest heroes of all the ages from 1500 unto the minute you may be reading this.
Ridley does a great job on bringing both to light.
“The Freemasons, A History of the World‟s Most Powerful Secret Society” was
written by a non-mason, as was “Born In Blood”. It is remarkable, but not very, but
it appears, at least to me, that some of the better books on Our Craft were written
by non-masons. Perhaps this is so because they have no ox to be gored and can
therefore present a fuller picture of Our Craft instead of the, Hey guys, “I‟m more
guilty than you all for were I to write a book on (m)Masons I would praise the
Brothers, John Wayne, Kit Carson, Geary, Ford, Olds, Washington, (both George
and Booker T.) Chrysler, Penny, Lindberg, Glenn, Grissom, Rickenbacker, Beard,
Rickover, Jones (founder of the Lion‟s Clubs) Astor, Colt, Gatling, Hilton, Locke,
7

to name a very few of the legions of many, but would gloss over, if not ignore the
likes of Benedict Arnold, FDR and his little buddy fellow traveler Henry Wallace,
and toss into the mix the likes of Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and, blessedly, only a
few other rascals.”
There are enough historically very large people who were and are Masons who do
and have done so much to make better mankind‟s passage through this veil of tears.
One could spend several lifetimes keeping them alive. Which brings me to another
subject – with so many, why do some masons always have to toss in, “Lincoln might
have been, could have, been a Mason?” I think we have more than enough to go
around. (Ridley handles this quite nicely, thank you very much.)
The book is bound to up-set some masons (small m) but the rest (Large M) will enjoy
it and appreciate its usefulness and is a good one for those who would like to know
more about Masons. Well worth passing around to the family and friends
FREEMASONS AT GETTYSBURG (MUNN) M17.97821 1
A great series of Masonic give and take during the worst war Americans have
fought.
FREEMASONS FOR DUMMIES (HODAPP) M00 1
It is difficult to review this book because of the restrictions on “any reproduction
is forbidden” etc. to the point that not one word can be
transmitted via any system known to man. There is included in the lists of “famous
masons” some names that give me pause on how they can call themselves Masons
while continuing to wreak havoc on the tapestry that forms our beliefs. That being
said, the book is well written and does make it easy to understand that historical
group known as Freemasons. Well worth the price and otherwise a good read. In a
Section of Military names I could add 17 names of U.S. Marines (I‟m working on the
Army, Navy and other lists) including Brother Col. Samuel Nicholas who left his
Lodge meeting in Tun Tavern to go down stairs and recruit lads to become a new
outfit to be called The United States Marine Corps. Also a Marine, and Brother,
named John A. LeJeune is not listed. A must for every Library, large or small.
THE FREEMASONS POCKET REFERENCE BOOK (PICK & KNIGHT) M00 1
A book consisting of a dictionary, Lexicon, Biographies and explanation of forms
and positions in the Lodge.
THE FREEMASONS THE ILLUSTRATED BOOK OF AN ANCIENT BROTHERHOOD
(JOHNSON) M 10 1
It is a good thing this book is well illustrated (8-1/2” x 12”) because it does very
little to shore-up any “Facts” about the Craft. Page 10 Beautiful plate – “King
Solomon‟s Temple In Jerusalem. While it was being built Hiram Abiff was attacked
and murdered, an event that continues to be remembered in present day
Freemasonry.” Page 13 – “…. bears a strong resemblance to the old Masonic
custom of symbolically burning on a pyre anyone who betrayed their secrets”.
There‟s more but you can waste your time if you want by many DA statements. The
Author is noted for his books for children – gee - I sure envy the English Children
who read his must be equally accurate books whilst in search of a real education.
GOLD DUST AND TROWLES (FRISBIE) M17.9745 1
Contains anecdotes of those early California Masonic pioneers whose wisdom and
vision coupled with their strength of purpose has helped produced the beauty that
is California.

HISTORY OF THE ANCIENT AND HONORABLE FRATERNITY OF FREE AND ACCEPTED
MASONS & CONCORDANT BODIES (Stillson)
M10 1 (Published in 1891; in poor condition) NOT TO LEAVE LIBRARY)
THE HISTORY OF ENGLISH FREMASONRY (HAMILL) M17.942 1
Brother Hamill uses simple terms to explain the history of the English Craft and
how it works; its relations with the Royal Arch and other degrees; its charitable
activities, and its defense against the “attacks of the insidious” - ill-informed
critics and incredulous opponents of Freemasonry.
THE HISTORY OF FREEMASONRY (GOULD, Et Al) M10.11 1
(Published in 1885 - poor condition - must not leave Library)
Covers the Antiquities of Freemasonry, the Ancient Mysteries, The Essenes, the
Roman Collegia and the Culdees. Includes the Old Charges of British
Freemasons, the Steinmetzen of Germany, the Craft Guilds of France as well as
the Mediaeval Operative Masonry and the Statutes relative to Freemasons.
THE HISTORY of FREEMASONRY (Mackey) M I0 1
Begins with Chapter I, the Tradition and History of Freemasonry and then
proceeds to, and through, Chapter XLIV The Leland Manuscript to tell us what
Masonry is not and slamming one of my ancestors in the process. In spite of that it
is an interesting book which covers the fact that Adam, Noah, St. Alban an many
others were not Masons, and neither was Cromwell for that matter. If you have
heard that some group or other was the “real” beginning of Freemasonry you will
probably find it totally discounted in this book.. A good one for those who just
have to “find their roots” while mostly ignoring and not bothering to improve the
tree, or plant, that they are.
HISTORY OF ROYAL ARCH MASONRY (TURNBULL) M14.4 Vol‟s. 1 & 2 Set of 2
HISTORY OF THE Cryptic rite (Hinman, et al) M14.4 Vol‟s. 1 (2) and 2 (1) = 3
HOLY BLOOD, HOLY GRAIL (BAIGENT, ET AL) M10 (1)
According to some, the secret History of Christ and the real story of the Grail;
and the true reason for the Templars post Middle-East.
HOUSE UNDIVIDED (ROBERTS) M47 1
If this is not the greatest book about Masonry and the Civil War then that book has
yet to be written. It should be noted that Masons did their best to avert this
terrible conflict, but failing that they tried their best to ease the difficulties and
suffering on both sides. The were, after all, Brothers.

Is it possible for the United States to destroy constitutional government and
establish a socialist dictatorship? Are we contributing to the communist efforts to
rule the world? This unique novel is about a mythical figure, Frank Rodriguez, a
West Point officer who turns communist under a strange chain of events, then
defects back to freedom and tells all.

IS IT TRUE WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT FREEMASONRY (DEHOYOS
& BRENT) M19 1
What is said by the Antimasonic believers and why it is wrong. Best stated by
Cannon R. Lewis (not a Mason) speaking to the General Synod of the Church of
England. “I am appalled, I am bound to say, by the unsolicited material that has been
sent to me … prior to this debate. What beggars my imagination is the way in which
anyone, for whatever sort of malicious, or neurotic or malicious (sic) reason, who
writes anything denouncing Freemasonry is assumed by some to be telling the
truth. They are not. We have seen it in public life and we have seen it here. The
Church should be different . . . .I am ashamed when fellow Christians are so
gullible and so uncharitable, and that is putting it charitably.” [This should
probably be sent to the Church of England as a reminder of the past that is being
repeated by that Church today.]
IRVINE VALLEY LODGE No. 671 Lodge Officers Book M17.9745 1
JOSEPHUS, The Works of, (Complete and Unabridged)
New Updated Edition Translated by William Whiston A.M.
Hardcover Edition: ISBN 0-913573-86-8
Paperback Edition: ISBN 1-56563-167-6
Seventeenth Printing – March 2003 M14.21 1
In Book 8 Chapter 2 we find the accuracy of 3,300 Masters or Oversees of the
work, 80,000 Fellowcrafts or hewers in the mountains or quarries and 70,000
Entered Apprentices who were bearers of burdens. (They were not titled as noted
here but there were that many in each category). Those who were engaged in the
work were not all Hebrews; many were “those who Hiram had sent”.The work
began in the 4 th year of the reign of Solomon on the 2 nd day of the month Zif (Our
Cipher page 170).However, Josephus puts it thus, “Solomon began to build the
Temple in the fourth year of his reign, on the second month of Jyr (or Jur) which
the Macedonians call Artemisius. [Present day April and May}.Whiston also makes
note that Boaz and Jachin were no more that 18 cubits as noted in 1 Kgs. 7:15; 2 Kgs
25:17; Jer. 3:21; those 35 cubits in 2 Chr. 3:15, being contrary to all rules of
architecture in the world. While on the subject of the two great pillars – they
were cast in brass 4 fingers in breadth and their circumference was 12 cubits. So
what does “four fingers and 12 cubits” relate to today? 1 finger was 1/24 th of a
cubit or .875 inches (x 4) = 3.50 inches. This means that the “hands breadth in
thickness” which being 1/6 th of a cubit or 3.5 inches since the thumb was not
included in the “hands breadth”. A cubit has been established as 21 inches,
therefore, 12 cubits x 21inches gives us a total of 252 inches or 21 feet. These
were truly remarkable castings for that time. [Though it, the measurements,
probably varied since it was based on the length from elbow to finger tip, and
other body parts varied through the ages, the figure 21 inches has been accepted
through references to other writings and comparisons to Greek and Roman
12

measurements of that era. If you hold a different view – so be it]. Now as to where
the Pillars were placed - Josephus says that they were placed on the porch and the
one the right hand was called Jachin and the one on the left was called Boaz. He
clarifies this by further stating that right and left are as viewed from the East
Gate, therefore, Jachin was on the South side of the entrance and Boaz was on the
North side of the entrance. There is much more – I have not read the entire book as
yet but having gone through Gibbons‟ “Fall” [I guess I will get through this one
some day. I get fascinated by these types of references but time is - - - -.We read also
read ”He also laid the floor of the temple with plates of gold”. [Tesselated or not
it saith not].Our (Masonic) story is close enough to make the point that it was a
magnificent structure and Solomon did indeed separate the workers so there was
no strife or conflict; which is, in my opinion, the point of the whole thing. Harmony.
THE KABBALAH (The Religious Philosophy of the Hebrews (FRANCK) M10.11 1
In the two thousand years that the Kabbalah has been studied there have been very
few books about it which can called readable. This is one of those few. The author
is able to bridge the gap between ancient and modern and makes the one
comprehensible to the other.
KING SOLOMON‟S TEMPLE IN THE MASONIC TRADITION (HORNE) M52 1
If we visualize the Temple as the background to the craft, the author, gives a
guided tour of each of its parts, in the course of which he provides answers to the
innumerable questions that constantly arise among those who are interested in
the field and especially among the Lodge Officers who have the responsibility of
mastering the ritual.
THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR (HOWARTH) M14.5 1
Here is a meticulously researched and completely absorbing history of the Order.
The Knights Templar joined together 1n 1118. They became a church within the
Church a state within a state. They were bankers, merchants, diplomats and tax
gatherers, and though they themselves were poor, the wealth of their Order was
legendary. A must read for the Knights of today.
The Knights Templar (Martin, Sean) M14.5 1
Sean Martin swims through the seams between orthodox and speculative and more
importantly the historical and the myths to bring a better sense to this era than
many others who have not been able to do. “As the great Tibetan saint
Padmasambhava once said, “Things are not what they seem; nor are they
otherwise.” A better view of Saint Bernard is had by the following, “ - - - Bernard
was going against the drift of Pope Gregory VII‟s reforms. He went even further
by arguing that knighthood was compatible with monasticism; the knights‟ duty was
to kill for Christ and in doing so, would rid the world of evil, not evil-doers. He
argued that there was a difference between homocide ~ killing which was a sin ~
and malecide ~ the killing of evil, which was not.

LECTURES ON ANCIENT PHILOSOPHY. (Companion to “The secret Teachings of All
Ages) (Hall) M10 1
13

In the Authors Preface (1994) “The discussion of moral arithmetic of Pythagoras is
a gentle introduction to the philosophic arithmetic of Theon of Smyrna and leads
immediately to an inspiring contemplation of universal mysteries. It also helps us
to appreciate the debt that is owed to the wisdom of the Greeks and Egyptians, and
the mathematical speculations of oriental sages. There is no way in which to more
rapidly release our own internal potentials than through the discovery of the
wonders of the Universal Plan and the parts that each of us must play in the
perfection of our world” The 1994 version was a re-print of the original in wch
the author states , in the1929 original Preface, among other things, he says, “ Our
civilization has not yet learned to value appreciation for the beautiful as the
foundation of the enduring culture. Unless we respond to the harmonious, the
elegant, the symmetrical, and the rhythmic, we are recreant to past good, a
menace to present integrity, and an obstacle to future effort. This truth is well
made in the Merchant of Venice::
“The man that hath no music in himself
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils.”
Truer to day more than then if such be possible.

THE LOST KEYS of FREEMASONRY (Hall,) M10.11 1
Manly P. Hall wrote and published the three works in this volume before he
became a Freemason. Hall joined Masonry in 1954, and was named and honorary 33
Degree Mason in 1973. It is the highest rank Freemasonry can bestow. “I am happy
to say that the admiration I had long held for the Masonic Order was increased
and deepened by a more intimate knowledge of its principles and a close personal
communion with my Brethren. Freemasonry is a philosophy which is essentially
creedless. It is the truer for it. Its brothers bow to truth regardless of the
bearer; they serve light, instead of wrangling over the one who brings it. In this
way they prove that they are seeking to know better the will and dictates of the
Invincible One. No truer religion exists than that of world comradeship and
14

otherhood, for the purpose of glorifying one God and building for Him a temple
of constructive attitudes and noble character.

THE MARK OF THE BEAST (RAVENSCROFT) M19.1 1
The authors lose all credibility as “researchers” when we find on page 81, the
following: “Freemasonry became an indispensable key to high office. For instance,
every Prime Minister in England , from Walpole in the eighteenth century to
Ramsey McDonald in the twentieth century , was Grand Master of the Freemason
order. This pattern of power was repeated throughout Europe. The same situation
existed in America every President until John F. Kennedy was a Freemason of High
Degree.” Utter nonsense. But yet an interesting book if read with tongue in cheek.

(HALL) M11 1
Those who do not understand the spiritual sciences question their use of unusual
symbols, myths and figures employed to conceal the essential teachings. Let it be
remembered that these “clouds” were no part of the original doctrine, but were
made necessary by intolerance and bigotry . The use of indirect communication was
based on entirely practical considerations. To remain unknown was the best way
to prevent a repetition of the disaster which occurred to the Knights Templars.
The “veils” which concealed the arcana of the Mysteries were not employed to
cover ignorance but to protect wisdom, and in Europe it was protected for a
thousand years. ISBN NO. 0-89314-539-4 L. C. 77-86473

The ritual of the craft is important. Without it there would be no Freemasonry as
we know it. The ritual alone, however, is of little value if it remains a monument to
stagnation. Armed with goals, plans, and all the other principles of good
leadership it can be a potent force for good through out the world. The choice is
yours. [Be very careful with this]-DRL

Japanese prison camp with Dutch Masons had no problem accepting the Masons as
look-outs while the Jesuits held their secret meetings. To be caught at either meant
torture or death if caught. A what else French professor Bernard was a totally
nasty piece of work - causing the imprisonment or torture or death (or all three of

To illustrate Masonic universality, one has only to go to the writings of George
Henry Timothy French. Here is demonstrated, more than in any other collection of
Masonic writings, contemporary or otherwise, an almost intuitive understanding
of the difference s, the nuances, the sensitivities of American Masonry as
compared to the Rest of the Masonic World. And all this from a man who spent the
first half of his life in an English-oriented society in Argentina.

THE MEANING OF MASONRY (PERKINS) M11 1
The Author believes that many younger men now coming into the Lodge want more
rational and scientific answers that will enable them to understand Masonry
better; and, that this book may be the answer, or at least a start to get them to
read other works and thus gain the knowledge they seek.
THE MEANING OF MASONRY (WILMHURST) M10.11 2
Freemasonry is based on the three great principles : Brotherly Love, Relief, and
Truth. Over the years, brotherly love have been so stressed that the Craft is in
serious danger of becoming primarily a social and charitable organization. Truth,
the most difficult principle to recognize and thus the most difficult to achieve, has
long been neglected. Wilmhurst carefully places his designs upon the
Trestleboard to build his thesis that the alpha and omega of Freemasonry is not
the repetition of ritual nor the safeguarding of secrets, but the regeneration of
the Brethren. A stunning book.
THE MEN‟S HOUSE (NEWTON) M10.4 1
A series of addresses covering some ten years. An example of the wisdom contained
“Freemasonry appeals to me, first, by its fellowship; and next to the home and the
House of God, it is the most blessed influence in my life. Its simple and profound
faith, its wise and practical philosophy - uniting the wisdom of love with the love of
wisdom - illumine my mind as its genius of fraternity warms my heart.
MESSAGES FOR A MISSION (CLAUSEN) M21.3 1
This book gives meaning to the statement, “ The purpose of the Scottish Rite, simply
stated, is to seek that which is the most worth in the world; to exalt the dignity of
every person. The human side of our daily activities, and the maximum service to
humanity; to aid mankind‟s search in God‟s universe for identity, for development
and for destiny, and thereby achieve better men in a better world, happier men in a
wiser world.”
MODERN HISTORICAL CHARACTERS IN FREEMASONRY (VAN GORDON) M10 1 It
was Ralph Waldo Emerson who exaggerated,, “There is properly no history, only
biography.” And, keeping that in mind the author has compiled Bio‟s of Brothers
Ethan Allen, Horatio Gates, Nat Green, Edmund Randolph and many others and
how their place in history made history. Excellent.
MODERN WORLD MOVEMENTS (BUCK) A First Edition Book (1913) M11 1

“What relationship do Theosophy, the Theosophical Movement and the present
Theosophical Society (or Societies) bear to the School of Natural Science as set
forth in “The Great Work” and the “harmonic Series”
MORALS AND DOGMA Ancient And Accepted Rite (PIKE) M21.3 4
Masons could not be solicited to buy this book. Opposite Pike‟s Picture in very bold
letters we find, “Esoteric Book, For Scottish Rite Use Only; To Be Returned Upon
Withdrawal, Or Death Of The Recipient, Needless to say no one pays much
attention. A dry difficult to read and understand book. Probably better for
serious scholars or research.
MORE ABOUT MASONRY (HAYOOD) M10 1
“Criticism is nothing other than a man‟s free use of his own mind over any given
field or subject matter, and the concomitant freedom to report what he finds, and
not to be penalized if what he finds proves (through no fault of his to be painful or
distressing or distasteful to somebody else. . . . . .” “ There is no conceivable
18

connection between criticism and fault-finding-and a man‟s reasoning is faulty if he
believes there is. When a man lets his own intelligence play freely over any
subject he is not searching for the faults in it but for the facts in it and the truths
about these facts; whether what he finds is good news or bad news depend on what
he finds those facts or truths to be. Who is he to dictate the facts! Would he not
be under the delusion that he is a god if he tried to make the facts be what he
wishes them to be! He reports what he finds. If a thing is bad he says so; if a thing is
good he says so.” More way good stuff in this book!!!!
MORMONISM AND MASONRY (GOODWIN) M19.43 1
The first contact of Mormonism with Masonry predates the Nauvoo period by
somewhat more than fifteen years. The author makes the case that the years which
saw the preparation of the “golden Bible” of this new faith, also witnessed the
very material prenatal influence of Masonry upon Mormonism, proof of which lies
thickly sprinkled over the pages of the Book of Mormons.

Book Review – Origins of Freemasonry Facts & Fiction.
Written by Margaret Jacob
ISBN-13:978-0-8122-3901-0
There is an old saying: “You can‟t tell a book by its cover”. I shall give you another:
“The Title of a book is not necessarily what the book is about”; I say, hoping that
someone else has not already come up with it.
The book has 165 pages not counting acknowledgements. Of that, 30 pages are
Notes and Index leaving 135
9 ¼”x 6” pages. The chapter on Origins contains 15 pages leaving 120 pages that I
will get to later, if at all.
[Authors words]. [My comments and opinions].
Page 3: “Reading about that history [Templars] should dispel the notion about the
Knights Templar as the origin of the masonic movement”. I have had about enough of
throw-away lines like this emanating from the PC world. To date, no one has
refuted John Robinson‟s “Born In Blood”. No new or old facts to warrant these
throw away lines from “modern writers”, whom, I suppose, are trying to take the
warrior out of war then and now. This line was found under a nice peaceful
picture titled “George Washington‟s Masonic Apron” The words, “One of” before
“George” is missing. Also missing is a picture of one of his many aprons, this one
with a skull and crossed bones as its centerpiece.
Page 5: "I wrote to the Library of the Grand Lodge of Great Britain in Freemasons'
Hall on Great Queen Street, right in the heart of Soho, and requested permission
to visit and read in its manuscript archives. The answer was a flat "no". Why?
Because at that time the records were closed to all nonmasons. In response I
pointed out hat, unlike many European Grand Lodges, the British one would not
admit women as freemasons. Hence, with impeccable logic, I pleaded that the rule
should not apply to me. They never answered that letter."
I may be wrong but I have never heard of the GLofGB. I have only heard of The
United Grand Lodge of England. I remember it well because only the Brits could
come up with a name that reduced to initials spells out UGLE.
First: The author wrote the letter “in the 1970‟s.” I went on line and found that
there were three (3) “Lodges” built/re-built at the address cited. The original, in
1717, was called the Grand Lodge of London; (later twice re-built).In 1813 it was
given the name “United Grand Lodge of England”. In 1967 “over 6,500 Masons
gathered to celebrate the 250 th anniversary of the United Grand Lodge of
England”, and in 1992 “12,500 Mason gathered to celebrate the 275 th anniversary
of the United Grand Lodge of England”. All on Great Queen Street, in Soho, in
London, in England; that last being a part of Great Britain. I believe that that
covers pretty much a time frame well before the 1970‟s and some 20 years after
the 1970‟s so there is no reason to believe that the Grand Lodge of Great Britain
ever existed, especially since the term “Great Britain”, I have been taught,
composes such places as Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Canada, Australia and some
others not needed so as not to belabor the subject. Why bring that up you may well
ask. Well, because each of those locations have their own Grand Lodge,
20

ecognized by UGLE and the U.S. and some European/Middle East/Far East/South
American and North American Lodges as well.
Second: I admit that it probably strains my testosterone driven mind, logical or
not, to understand impeccable logic. The words non-Mason is inclusive of either or
any sex. [A bit of PC there]. A non-Mason is just that, a non-Mason. Whether some
Lodges admit women or not would have no bearing on the word non-Mason. To
offer the thought that all Lodges recognize each other is not true, but even if it
were, the author offers no evidence that she is a member of any Masonic Lodge
anywhere in the known world and therefore “entitled” under the mutual
recognition rule, to be accepted as a Mason in good standing. And finally, let us
suppose that the Grand Lodge of Great Britain suddenly admitted women, so what?
The author makes no claim to being a citizen of Great Britain so what would be the
logic in allowing a non-citizen a membership? Enough of that. But it is difficult to
give authoritative weight to anything that follows from the author.
Page12: “We meet them [The four Lodges] only in1717 when the existence of the
Grand Lodge became known. [Why was 1717 a “magic number” for Masonry in
England? Perhaps it was because just prior to 1717 the first Hanoverian King
ascended the throne of England – a throne that was then legally forbidden to any
Roman Catholic or spouse of a Roman Catholic? That act alone removed forever
the very real threat to the Templars of any then or future Pope through a Pope
approved monarch (page 179 – Born In Blood) might be the reason for “- - - - - the few
pieces we have about them (the four Lodges) before 1717.
From this point we find ourselves squarely, if you will, into the reason for the
book and why the Title needs revision. Shazam! We are led into the reasons of why
we should have women inducted into our Masonic Lodges, as they do in Europe with
heavy leaning on France as the star.
Page 47: “We begin this chapter with a paradox that has never been fully
explained. [Just wait, it will be] Why in the eighteen century did an entire private
society, a form of voluntary association---which is what the masonic lodges were--adopt
all the customs, habits and forms of government? One standard explanation
has been that because the lodges arose in England and Scotland they simply
imitated constitutional government. But that circular reasoning only begs the
question, offering no explanation as to why this imitation happened in the first
place, [Wait for it] nor suggesting any reason for the subsequent imitation or
interest that Freemasonry sparked on the Continent. [Perhaps it is because it is
what they knew and desired to spread to protect those in the future. So what did
they know? They knew that “the ancient Kingdom of Scots - - - -was based on the
mutual welfare of groups of people descended from common ancestors - - - was
traditionally maintained by the Kings of Scots in their capacity as the “common
fathers” of the Community of the realm. (They) were obliged to uphold Scotland‟s
Written Constitution of 1320 the famous “Declaration of Arbroath” established
at the time of Robert the Bruce. The Declaration represented (that) all the people
(are) equal in status to their King. With the King being the chief of chiefs in the
clan system it was the right of the people to call him their “kith” (friend and
relation); conversely it was the king‟s privilege to call the people his “kin” (blood
relatives). The Constitution underlined the nations right to have a king of their
own choosing and it confirmed that sovereignty rested with the people, not with
Parliament - - - . (Gee – change king to president and parliament to congress and
you have ???) Page 9, “The Forgotten Monarchy of Scotland –HRH Prince Michael
of Albany. So, some 400 years before the 1700‟s they had? Naaaah - that can‟t be
the answer; but what the hey, at least now you know where kith & kin came from.
21

Ther are also a couple of throw away lines about mixing the races in the Lodges
but that doesn‟t seem to equal the thrust of the 120 pages on women in European
Masonry. (I have already made clear the major reason for the so called lack of
mixture in some Lodges.)
I‟m not going further with this as the balance of the book, 120 pages, relates to
how women would make a favorable impact for the good on the Lodges of today.
Really. Like in Europe, especially in France. On the Continent. I fail to understand
people who should know better carping about how we should be more like the
Europeans. So let‟s compare Europe of today with the United States:
1) Government spending of the gross GDP in France and Sweden exceeds
50%. Germany and Italy is more that 45%. Us - 36%
2) Our per capita output in 2003 was $39,700.00 – Europe showed a 40% drop
to $28,700.00
3) Europe‟s unemployment in 2006 is averaged to 8% while ours average 4.7%
4) From 1970 to 2006 we created 57 million new jobs while those we should
emulate in Europe created 4 million new jobs during the same period
5) European standard of living, when ranked, is equal to Arkansas and
Montana and only slightly ahead of West Virginia and Mississippi.
6) Average living space in Europe – just less than 1,000 square feet. Our
average is 1,875 square feet with poor people in at 1,200 square feet
7) If we should be more like the Europeans how come 400,000 European
science and technology graduates live in the U.S. European migration to
the nation of at best uncultured misfits rose 16% during the 1990‟s
8) In 1980 the foreign investment in this country was $127 Billion dollars.
Today it stands at 4.6 TRILLION dollars. Almost 5Trillion of that comes
from those in Europe who find our investment opportunities more likeable.
It would appear then that any suggestion that we be more like Europe
simply means that we all should be poorer. (Excerpted from a column in
the OC Register by Walter E. Williams – one of my hero‟s.) As for me, – no
thanks.
As for admitting women into our Lodges, irrespective of the European connection,
what would be the advantage or specific gain to the Lodge other than an increase
of income from dues?
Let me finish this with a thought from Kropotkin from his “Spirit of Revolt,” “TO
SATISFY THE DISCONTENTED WOULD BE ONLY TO CREAT NEW MALCONTENTS.”

THE SEARCH FOR LEADERSHIP (Research Lodge No. 2 A.F & A.M. Iowa) MO3 2
ISBN 0-935633-05-7
It is said that every war since time began was caused by poor leadership. And, you
can accomplish anything IF you do not care who gets the credit. And,
Enthusiasm/Drive MUST come from the top. And, Lack of knowledge by a leader is
the cause of every failure. And, Leadership comes in only two sizes – Constructive
or Obstructive. And, MY goals mean nothing – OUR goals mean everything. And,
Ignorance is the most expensive thing there ever has been, is now, and always will
be. And Lastly, There can be no dedication without education.
If you do not believe even one of these “Ands” then you need this book. In it you will
find, paraphrasing, “The Body of Freemasonry” [or any other group] is: The brain
and heart represent symbolism; Benevolence, the soul; History being the flesh;
Jurisprudence/Law are the muscles; The Bloodstream is it‟s philosophy and it‟s
rituals it‟s skeleton.
Sorry, [not really] but my personal belief that leaders are made not born is fully
justified beginning on page 22. Further, great ritualist make good Masters is as
false as is great Masters are always good ritualists. However, a great Master
understands the philosophy of the ritual and therefore ensures that it is
conferred in the best possible manner for the purpose of inspiring the candidates
to make it a part of their lives. Rather than go further I am attaching Albert
Mackey‟s “Reading Masons and Mason Who Do Not Read, written in 1875.
To check out some of what needs be done we must understand that a thought is
worthless if it cannot be put into understandable words and even then will remain
worthless if the receiver of the words does not, or will not, listen. How to
overcome this problem is well explained beginning on page 54. Therefore
communication can be, and often is, the weakest link in the chain of many, if not all,
actions. I hope that all those who aspire to the Oriental Chair read this book.

aspects of human thought which are particularly compelling are combined to
