The Secret World of the Freemasons
by Tim Dedopulos  
Outline
Written by the grandson of a high-ranking Mason, "The Secret World of the Freemasons" is a fascinating look inside the enigmatic institution. Starting with a detailed look at the visible structure of international Freemasonry and the myths and legends that surround it, the book moves on to examine the meaning of Freemasonry - its mythological and real history, its social context, and the symbolism and philosophy that illuminate every aspect of the Craft. Finally, the book examines the current state of Freemasonry today, including some of the scandals and intrigues that have become associated with it, and the trials facing the ancient order as it approaches the challenges of the twenty-first century. The book includes features on famous Masons of the past and present.
