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. 

The Complete Idiot’s Guide® to Freemasonry, S
econd Edition, fills readers in on the truths behind the mysteries. In it, readers get:
- A fact-filled overview of the birth and beginnings of Freemasonry, including its relationship to the Knights Templar and Egypt.
- Fascinating facts about famous Masons.
- An explanation of the various Masonic organizations, such as the York and Scottish rites, and the Shriners.
- A behind-the-scenes look at what really goes on in a Masonic lodge, including initiations.
