The Builders
by Joseph Fort Newton
One of the most readable introductions to Masonic history and philosophy, including (for once) a factual account of how Freemasonry emerged in the 18th century.
An outstanding classic in Masonic literature offering the early history of Freemasonry and an exposition of the faith of Masonry.
Joseph Fort Newton (1876-1950) was an American author. His books include Some Living Masters of the Pulpit (1923), The Men's House (1923), and Preaching in New York (1924). "Fourteen years ago the writer of this volume entered the temple of Freemasonry, and that date stands out in memory as one of the most significant days in his life. There was a little spread on the night of his raising, and, as is the custom, the candidate was asked to give his impressions of the Order. Among other things, he made request to know if there was any little book which would tell a young man the things he would most like to know about Masonry-what it was, whence it came, what it teaches, and what it is trying to do in the world? No one knew of such a book at that time, nor has any been found to meet a need which many must have felt before and since. By an odd coincidence, it has fallen to the lot of the author to write the little book for which he made request fourteen years ago. "
