Born in Blood: The
Lost Secrets of Freemasonry

Many of
Freemasonry's members have accepted the belief that the world's
largest fraternal organization originated with the medieval

Freemason’s Guide
and Compendium
By Bernard Edward Jones
First
published in 1950, the Freemasons' Guide and Compendium is
filled with authentic, detailed information on a wide variety of
subjects related to masons and masonry. Written by an experienced
Freemason with the interests of rank-and-file members of the
ordinary lodge in mind—especially the young Craftsman who wishes to
learn the nature of Freemasonry's claim to have a history that goes
back to ancient days—it provides key facts about Masonic history,
tradition, and lore. In doing so, the book offers a far greater
scope of information than any other comparable work. And Bernard E.
Jones critically examines conflicting ideas about how some of the
traditions came to be, coming to conclusions of his own.

His Excellency
George Washington
by Joseph J. Ellis
To this
landmark biography of our first president, Joseph J. Ellis brings
the exacting scholarship, shrewd analysis, and lyric prose that have
made him one of the premier historians of the Revolutionary era.
Training his lens on a figure who sometimes seems as remote as his
effigy on Mount Rushmore, Ellis assesses George Washington as a
military and political leader and a man whose “statue-like solidity”
concealed volcanic energies and emotions.

Revolutionary
Brotherhood
by Steven C. Bullock
In the
first comprehensive history of the fraternity known to outsiders
primarily for its secrecy and rituals, Steven Bullock traces
Freemasonry through its first century in America. He follows the
order from its origins in Britain and its introduction into North
America in the 1730s to its near-destruction by a massive
anti-Masonic movement almost a century later and its subsequent
reconfiguration into the brotherhood we know today. With a
membership that included Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Paul
Revere, and Andrew Jackson, Freemasonry is fascinating in its own
right, but Bullock also places the movement at the center of the
transformation of American society and culture from the colonial era
to the rise of Jacksonian democracy.

not grasp at the time. HIS WIFE? WHY? Because she will gain an
understanding of the new avenues opening for a better and fuller
life for the entire family. Also, a must for SPEAKERS, LEADERS, THE
NON-MASON, AND EVERYBODY WHO NEEDS A "LIFT" FOR A BETTER WAY OF
LIVING WITH HIS FELLOWMAN.

The Hiram Key
by Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas
The
Hiram Key
is a book that will shake the Christian world to its very roots.
When Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas, both Masons, set out to
find the origins of Freemasonry they had no idea that they would
find themselves unraveling the true story of Jesus and the original
Jerusalem Church. As a radically new picture of Jesus started to
emerge, the authors came to the startling conclusion that the key
rituals of modern Freemasonry were practiced by the early followers
of Jesus as a means of initiation into their community.

The Temple and the
Lodge
by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh
The Temple and The Lodge
charts
the birth of Freemasonry through the survival of Templar traditions,
through currents of European thought, through the mystery
surrounding Rosslyn chapel, and through an elite cadre of
aristocrats attached as personal bodyguards to the French king.
Pursuing Freemasonry through the seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries, the authors reveal its contribution to the fostering of
tolerance, progressive values and cohesion in English society, which
helped to pre-empt a French-style revolution. Even more
dramatically, the influence of Freemasonry emerges as a key
factoring the formation of the United States of America as an
embodiment of the ideal ‘Masonic Republic’.
