4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent insight into legends associated with freemasonry, 22 Oct 1999
By A Customer
This book is well researched, well written and provides a valuable insight into the origins of Freemasonry (both actual and in legends). I would recommend this book to anyone whether a freemason or like me - not a freemason but has a great interest into the history of one of the worlds great organisations.

5.0 out of 5 stars HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, 10 Dec 1998
By A Customer
This book was a truly enchanting read. I thought that Brother Mackey's dissection of what is legend and what is fact was remarkable. You can tell by reading this book that a tremendous amount of research went into his works. Bro.

A true work of art for the Masonic Student...

3.0 out of 5 stars An odd insider's history, 25 Sep 1998
By A Customer
For anyone interested in how the Masons view themselves, this book is a valuable resource. It is most certainly not a factual history, but the myths are just important to anyone seriously studying Masonic history. At the very least, it adds a handsome and esotrtic-looking volume to your shelf.
