Customer Book Reviews
Average Rating: Rating: - GREAT BOOK!! I would strongly recommend this book for anyone joining the masons. This book goes into great detail about several aspects of masonry, and what it really means to be an "ancient and accepted freemason". Because of the time it was originally written, (1800's) it is not quite as easy to read as a readers digest short story. HOWEVER, that is what makes it all the more valuable in terms of insight and knowledge. This book has great detail of the many things that make up freemasonry, and as well it has a spiritual feeling to it that, unless you are joining or already are one, you may not respect or understand. A great book for you're library if you are planning on joining this great fraternity Rating: - Four months to read this Little Book..... .... and I'm finding that any answers I find lead to more questions. This is a challenging book, make no mistake. I've taken a long time to complete it. But for those interested in the 'speculative' (i.e. the philospohical and allegorical aspects of Craft lore) it's an invaluable read. To be fair, Wilmshurst takes such a western/Christian take on the Craft, that others may be put off... I have no problem with it. I would, just as quickly, take up a similar discussion of the Craft from a Judaic or Islamic (or even Buddhist or Hindu) point of view, because one cannot fully understand a concept until one looks at it from many different angles. "The Meaning of Masonry" is just but a small footstep into a larger world. If you're a non-Mason, or not an individual who's clearly seeking the metaphoric 'light', then this book will pose an even greater challenge. Rating: - The Meaning of Masonry A fine book that avoids the often sought route of showing the mason's history and what we have done. This book focuses on what masonry is and tries to offer a deeper understanding of what masonry is. An excellent way of learning more about the craft
