The Builders

By Joseph Fort Newton

---

The Builders, by Joseph Fort Newton is one of the best investigations of the history and development of modern Freemasonry from the Anicient Mysteries that is available today. This text occupies a central position in any Masonic curriculum and should be perused by all newly initiated Brethren. The wisdom it contains within its pages will serve to inspire the newly made Mason as to the great historical depth contained within the ancient Craft of Freemasonry. Newton traces the occult influence and esoteric origins on what is now known as Freemasonry and paints a picture of incredible detail that cannot help but educate the reader. Extremely well-researched and footnoted, The Builders will prove an excellent tool for any Brother who wishes to learn more about the majesty and symbolic efficiency of Freemasonry.
