Details
Being a True Guide To the inmost Recesses of Free-Masonry, Both Ancient and Modern. Containing a minute account of the proceedings from an Entered Apprentice to a Past Master, with the different Signs, Words, and Gripes. Illustrated with several elegant copper-plates, exhibiting the different Lodges, Freemasons’ Cyphers, &c. To which is added a complete list of all the English Regular Lodges in the World, according to their seniority, with the dates of each Constitution, and days of meetings. By T. W., anofficer iii the army, and late Master of the Swan Tavern Lodge in the Strand. The Second Edition, with the addition of two beautiful copper-plates. Translated from the French original published at Berlin, and burnt by the order of the King of Prussia, atthe Intercession of the Free-Masons.
First edition was published in 1766, and, as with the others of the series, valuable simply for what they took from the authorised lists of lodges for the years of issue, or earlier editions. All of the first and second editions are very difficult to procure.
