In 1826 Robert Benjamin Folger, a recent graduate of medical school and a new Master Mason, filled a book with the enciphered Craft rituals of the Rectified Scottish Rite, a high-grade revision of the rite of Strict Observance. well-known in Europe but unknown in the UNited States. His introduction directed thatthe rituals be "committed to the Flames" upon his death. FOrtunatley for Masonic historians instructions were not followed. Folger went on to prepare at least two other books of rituals. A man of tremendous talents, strongpassions, and curious contradictions, Folger was twice expelled from Masonry by the Grand Lodge of New York and participated in at least six clandestine Supreme Councils, but died a Master Mason in good standing. The book gives full transcriptions of all og his rituals, an analysis of their place in Masonry and biographies of Folger and his major contemporaries in his Masonic work.

This analysis of the masonic brotherhood examines the basic question asked for almost 300 years by the general public and surprisingly by many masons themselves; "If Freemasonry is simply a fraternal and charitable organisation, why is there an almost fanatical obsession with secrecy and mysterious masonic rituals?" You won't find any fanciful theories here about ancient mystical secret societies, devil worship or world domination by a new world order but a conclusion that perhaps we've all been hoodwinked by one of the longest running pyramid schemes the world has known. The author (an ex-Worshipful Master) spent 20 years on the inside then another 10 years on the outside looking back in, and has had to grapple with some very challenging personal issues in order to make his analysis of the masonic 'secret' society public. In fact writing and publishing was the only process by which he could challenge and ultimately break the hold of the masonic oath, which is usually powerful enough to prevent such objective analysis. He explains how a chink in the ritual allowed him to see flaws in the oath-taking process that convinced him that he was no longer obligated. Reader's comment: "Excellent work on many levels! Excellent research, excellent reasoning, even though much data is presented the argument is very focused, and the point and ultimate subject is of no secondary importance to anyone - a wake up call to re-examine the doctrines that many have been taking for granted. I was presented with an opportunity to join and am very glad I had a chance to read your book first. I am very thankful to you for helping people like myself to save a lot of time and resources in arriving at an informed decision about masonry. Many thanks!" Foreword by Martin Short, author of Inside the Brotherhood. "Hugh McFarland helps us penetrate the layers of concealment wrapped around the institution in which he served for so long. His insights are priceless. His courage is profound."

This is the first book which establishes a direct link between the rituals of Freemasonry and the practice of both chemical and spiritual alchemy. Albert Pike understood that the symbolic degrees of Freemasonry contained alchemical secrets, but he never put the whole pattern together and showed how. This book shows these connections for the first time. This book is a must for any Freemason who wants to understand the secret meanings behind the Symbolic "Blue Lodge" ritual. Tim Hogan is a PM, 32*KCCH, KT, FRC, PSM-AMD, and Knight RC of the Royal Order of Scotland. He lectures extensively both inside and outside of the United States on Freemasonry.
