This primary resource collection charts a key period in the development of organised Freemasonry, culminating in the formation of a single United Grand Lodge of England.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe secrecy that has historically surrounded Freemasonry has often made it difficult to access information and documents about the organisation and its adherents. This collection, the result of extensive archival research and transcription, highlights the most significant themes associated with Freemasonry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe documents included are drawn from masonic collections, private archives, and libraries worldwide. Interestingly, the majority of these texts have never before been republished.
