With this view the Pocket Lexicon has been compiled and carefully revised. Nothing is contained in it that is not strictly correct, and confined solely to the three degrees of Antient Freemasonry. It has already been approved of by three of the Grand Masters and many Past Masters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
