Book Description
"Why don't these new guys come back?" This is the question I often hear; and it is this same question that pushed me to write this book. However, there is a second question that has developed alongside it: When so many Lodges are losing members, how is another significant number of Lodges not only are retaining their active membership, but are flourishing? These questions address both universal and local Masonry, and they are intimately intertwined. This book therefore addresses these questions in a holistic way.

Book Description
Originally published in 1723 in a London newspaper, this was the very first Masonic exposure. In 1760, Samuel Pritchard expanded the untitled work to include the opening and closing of the lodge and released the exposure as "The Three Distinct Knocks." This is a very significant work for all Masons, as it provides us with a clear look at the early roots of our Masonic ritual. Digitally enhanced photographic reproduction of the 1760 edition.

Book Description
Freemasonry was a major cultural and social phenomenon and a key element of the Enlightenment. It was to have an international influence across the globe. This primary resource collection charts a key period in the development of organized Freemasonry culminating in the formation of a single United Grand Lodge of England. The secrecy that has surrounded Freemasonry has made it difficult to access information and documents about the organization and its adherents in the past. This collection is the result of extensive archival research and transcription and highlights the most significant themes associated with Freemasonry. The documents are drawn from masonic collections, private archives and libraries worldwide. The majority of these texts have never before been republished. Documents include rituals (some written in code), funeral services, sermons, songs, certificates, an engraved list of lodges, letters, pamphlets, theatrical prologues and epilogues, and articles from newspapers and periodicals. This collection will enable researchers to identify many key masons for the first time. It will be of interest to students of Freemasonry, the Enlightenment and researchers in eighteenth-century studies. Includes more than 550 texts - Many texts are published here by special arrangement with the Library and Museum of Freemasonry, London - Contains over 260 pages of newly transcribed manuscript material - Documents are organized thematically - Full editorial apparatus including general introduction, volume introductions, headnotes and explanatory endnotes - A consolidated index appears in the final volume
