Book description
In Cracking the Freemason's Code, Robert Cooper explains
exactly who the Freemasons are and what they do. As the Curator of the
Scottish Masonic Museum and Library, the author is in a unique
position to reveal the secret history of this elect brotherhood.
Prompted by growing public interest and provoked by the controversial
stories that circulate about Freemasonry, this is the first time that
he has chosen to do so.
Cracking the Freemason's Code is written with an insider's
knowledge and privileged access to archive material, including
never-before published images. It lays bare the intriguing symbolism,
beliefs and history of the Masons, and explains the structure of
Freemasonry, its ethos and connections to other secret societies. It
also discloses the identities of famous Masons and the locations of
important Masonic sites. This is the book that answers once and for
all any questions readers may have about what Freemasonry is and the
role it has played in shaping our society.
Robert Cooper is an acclaimed authority on Freemasonry and a member
of the Grand Priory of Scotland, whose 2005 lecture tour took him across
five continents in 77 days, addressing audiences in the UK, Australia,
New Zealand, Hong Kong, South Africa, India, and the United States. Also
a member of the Supreme Council of Scotland, the Royal Order of Scotland
and the Grand Conclave of Scotland, he has appeared many times in the
media, most recently in
The Real Da Vinci Code
, presented by Tony Robinson.
