The Magnum Opus or the Great Work Paperback – 10 Sept. 2010

If you are suspicious of Masons and what they get up to, if you have heard of plots and schemes and dodgy dealings in council halls and the police, then this is the book for you. This book details the philosophy of masonry as it is supposed to be practiced and not the way it is practiced by certain "brothers" who get the craft a bad name.This is a seminal work, heavily criticised by some masons for destroying the original Scottish rite, but revered by others for preserving it and bringing the craft back to the light.Anyone who has read the books of Baigent, Leigh, Lincoln, Knight and Lomas should get this book to search for the hidden clues etc, but prepare to be tantalised rather than enlightened.It is not any easy read, and is a bit long winded by modern standards, but is sincere, thorough and highly laudable. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone interested in masonry and the esoteric history of the race.
