Freemasonry is an ancient secret society shrouded in obscurity. Fascination with the mysteries of the Masons reached a fevered pitch after the release of Dan Brown’s novels Angels and Demons, The Da Vinci Code, and The Lost Symbol. But these novels and their related movies raised more questions than they answered.

- A behind-the-scenes look at what really goes on in a Masonic lodge, including initiations.

- Scripts for Masonic rituals, giving a flavor of the language used in such ceremonies.
- A field guide to Masonic symbols and regalia, with photos and explanations of significance.
