Jean-Louis de Biasi, a 32nd degree Freemason who's been involved in the order for over twenty years, gives readers a rare candid look at the little-known facts and essential aspects of Freemasonry. De Biasi reveals the Masonic tradition's history, the Scottish Rite's degree-based system, and the order's closely held beliefs. He explores Freemasonry's roots in the Ancient Egyptian Mysteries, its hermetic and Qabalistic underpinnings, and the sacred symbolism embedded in the U.S. Capitol and Washington Monument. It also discusses: Masonic temples, power-charged grids hidden in architecture, Albert Pike's teachings, the Rose Cross mysteries, and the Masonic themes in Dan Brown's popular books.
