Historical Sketch of the Cryptic Rite Pilgrimage to Colorado and Pike's Peak, August 6th to 13th, A.D. 1899, A. Dep. 2899, Under Auspices of Ellsworth (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781019577387)

For fans of Masonic history and lore, this book is a fascinating glimpse into the world of the Cryptic Rite, a little-known but important branch of Freemasonry. William M. Shaver's account of the pilgrimage to Colorado and Pikes Peak in 1899 is both a travelogue and a Masonic ritual, with vivid descriptions of the scenery and the ceremonies. It also provides valuable insights into the history and practice of the Cryptic Rite, which remains a mystery to most outsiders.
