eBook editionsLodge of the Double-Headed Eagle: Two Centuries of Scottish Rite Freemasonry in America's Southern Jurisdictionby William L. Fox
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:First formed in Charleston, South Carolina, the Southern Jurisdiction of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite is now the largest and oldest group of Freemasons in the world. Its first institutional history provides a useful window on the influence of the Rite on American middle-class culture and the nation's democratic, civic, and moral values. 1997, 568 pages Book News Annotation:From the May 1801 founding of the Supreme Council to the present day,
Fox (historian/archivist of the Supreme Council) explores the
institutional history of the largest Masonic jurisdiction currently
existing in the world. In exploring the makeup of the Masons, he
links social and cultural developments in the lodge to prevailing
arrangements in the United States and argues that Masonic
developments in turn profoundly influenced the histories of nearby
fraternal and public institutions.
