Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Historical Landmarks and Other Evidences of Freemasonry, Vol. 1 of 2: Explained, in a Series of Practical Lectures, With Copious Notes
In the prosecution of this design I have adopted an arrangement 0 responding with the order in which our degrees are conferred - After an Introduction containing an inquiry into the legality and usefulness of Masonic publications; and two Preliminary Lectures, giving a general view of the Landmarks intended to be illustrated, I shall enter upon a series of disquisitions illustrative of the First Tracing-board; in which the Form, Situation, Extent, Ground (including the first and second Grand Offerings), Support, and Covering of a Lodge will be dilated on in so many Lectures. The deliverance from Egyptian bondage, and the ancient custom of Opening a lodge on the highest of hills, or in the lowest of valleys, will close the illustrations of the First Degree.
