Freemasons' Guide and Compendium
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 wished 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 book. And Bernard E. Jones critically examines conflicting ideas about how some of the traditions came to be, coming to conclusions of his own.

Outstanding reference on British Freemasonry
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
The first edition of this book was published about 1950. This is a broad survey of Freemasonry covering English, Scottish and Irish aspects and written by an English author. Unlike many earlier books on Freemasonry which are often available in reprinted form, this book is readable and remains an invaluable and authoritative reference source. Jones also wrote a book on the Royal Arch, also highly recommended. A CD version containing both books is available.
