An overview of the mysterious history of the Freemasons and their presence in American society With over four million members worldwide, and two million in the U.S., Freemasonry is the largest fraternal organization in the world.

American Freemasons explores some of the causes for the rise and fall of membership in the fraternity and why it has attracted men in such large numbers for centuries. American Freemasons is the perfect introduction to understanding a society that, while shrouded in mystery, has played an integral role in the lives and communities of millions of Americans.

This book is an annotated translation of a rare masonic manuscript of St. Edouard, an early Scottish Rite Lodge in 1748 Paris. It is a rare document of one of the embryos of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry. this work unveils the links that have existed between Freemasonry and the political, cultural and social life of the turbulent and ingenious era of the enlightenment in 18th Century Europe. Four decades later, this abundance of uninhibited, uncommon and sometimes-astonishing ideas would inexorably ignite the French Revolution of 1789, a cataclysmic upheaval of universal proportion, in which some of the members of St. Edouard Lodge were definitively involved. A few of them fell victim to the infamous guillotine.
