Recommended
Readings
Many thousands of books concerning Freemasonry have been written
during the past 300 years, with additional titles published every month. This
list merely scratches the surface and is not intended to confine you, the
reader, to these titles alone.
One of the great duties of Lodges
(and the Masons in those Lodges) is to provide sound Masonic education to newly
made Masons.
Essentially, there is no
official reading list for Freemasons. Over the years, a few individuals
and/or organizations have cobbled together a list of things that they feel are
valuable but such lists are the exclusive work of the individual and often
greatly reflect their particular field of interest or fascination. No such list
should ever be considered as required and, regrettably, there are those Masons
who do not take seriously the admonition that they should make a daily
advancement in their education.
Some of the books are already hyperlinked where you can ordered
it, but you can purchase many of these books by searching the following
booksellers' and auction websites below:
Lastly please be advise that the appearance of these books on the
recommended lists are not to be taken as an endorsement. They are a compilation
of books that I have seen in many other Masonic sites as recommended readings
that have been compiled and organized by subject to the best of my knowledge.
If one book should be in another list, or you have a book that should be listed,
please let me know. The following are the so-called recommended list by
subjects:
About History and Philosophy
About American History
About Famous Masons
About Freemasonry
About Fiction
About Lodges and Education
About Orders
About References
About Religion
About Ritual and Symbolism
About Other Readings
