The most detailed and authoritative text on the true meaning of the Taylors Masonic rituals! The principal contents of this book are the Official Taylors Lectures on the Three Degrees of Craft Freemasonry. These lectures deal with the description of the ritual of those Degrees along with their moral and symbolic significance and are of a formal nature, arranged as catechisms - that is by question and answer form. The text can be studied at home or can be preformed by two or more brethren in open lodge. Much evidence suggests that many sections of these lectures are as old as the degrees themselves. This book adds much to ones enjoyment and understanding of Freemasonry.

During the Ceremony of Installation there comes a time when the current Master installs the Master Elect of the lodge in his stead. To do this a board of Installed Masters is called in and a ceremony takes place to transfer the authority of the lodge and place the new Master in the chair of King Solomon. This section of the ritual is known as the Inner Working. This book contains the Universal Workings version of the Inner Working and is to be used with the Universal Workings Ritual book.1987,pp5.
