5.0 out of 5 stars A Manual of The Lodge
This is a reprint of the origanal that I have in my pocssession. It was copyrighted in 1862.
It has in credible explanations of various symbols such as the bee hive, the spade(check out the cia's symbol), the all seeing eye of God.
It even offer's the funeral service. I suggest it highely.
No other Masonic book moved me as much as this.

2.0 out of 5 stars Really hard to read
The text is really small and hard to see. I have a kindle 2. Maybe its better on the DX. Its almost worthless because its so hard to read, and my eyes are pretty good. Its a great book to read if you can see what it says. I borrowed the original and it's the same thing. Just hard to see. Plus you can NOT adjust the text size. It stays super small no matter what. Good luck.

4.0 out of 5 stars thorough, thoughtful, but at times hard to read, December 27, 2006

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Manual of the Lodge (Paperback)
Dr. Mackey has written an excellent book giving key insights into the symbolism of lodge activities and degree ceremonies. There is a lot to learn here. Unfortunately, he wrote this book in 19th century intellectual prose, which is cumbersome by today's standards. So it takes a bit of work to get through. This new edition is simply a modern publisher's photocopy of the original, and a very few sections of the text are hard to see. But those gripes aside, it's well worth reading. As a 32nd degree Mason, I found it quite useful and illuminating, and I recommend it to the curious and the Mason.
