Building a Study

[Brother_Dunn]

I am looking to build a small library of Masonic texts and books for my study room. I would like to hear all of your suggestions on this. And if you have any you would like to donate I would be very appreciative.

I have read some Manly P. Hall...very deep stuff. One was the Secret Teachings of All Ages another was the Lost Keys of Freemasonry. Of course Pike, all of the major religious books such as the Bible, Quran, etc would be essential...NO PAPERBACKS! The books are endless. Any book on philanthropy would be nice too. You could easily fill a library with just Masonic related books.

Yea, I have chosen Morals and Dogmas as my first read. Its an amazing lesson so far.

Wow. And when you decided to learn to sing the song you picked first was the entire Encyclopedia!

Freemasonry - Symbols, Secrets, Significance

By W. Kirk MacNulty, Published Thames and Hudson 2006 ISBN 978-050051302-6

 

[Brother JC]

"The Meaning of Masonry" and "The Masonic Initiation," both by WL Wilmshurst. (Plumbstone revised editions recommended.)
"The Builders," by Joseph Fort Newton.
There are countless others and at least one thread dedicated to the subject.

"Freemasons' Guide and Compendium: (revised edition) by Bernard Jones. "Cracking the Freemasons Code" by Robert L.D. Cooper.

If you read "Born in Blood," make sure you read something to balance it, like "The Rosslyn Hoax" by Robert L.D. Cooper. "Born in Blood" is entertaining reading, but should be taken with more than a grain of salt.

I just finished " Inside The Worlds Oldest secret Society" . Good read, written by a non-mason.

A really great book. I received a copy after the two day AASR reunion.
