Review Summary: Very Informative
Date: 2008-10-01
Details: This book offers many new ideas and new views on Freemasonry. Being a Mason myself, I found this book very informative on the aspects of Freemasonry. I would highly recommend this book to anyone involved in Freemasonry, or for those who are curious about the thoughts and ideas that Freemasons have to offer.
Review Summary: Good source for the student of Masonry
Date: 2008-09-15
Details: This book is a very well organized compilation of Masonic essays. The information is more suited to an informed member, I found explanations to several questions that I have asked over the years. However anyone looking to learn about the teachings of the fraternity will find the essays quite useful. "Masonic Enlightenment" will make an excellent addition to the library of a Lodge or a student of Masonry.
Review Summary: A great choice of Masonic material

Details: Mike Poll has pulled together a variety of essays from past generations and presented them for the enlightenment of Masons today. These are time-tested thoughts and ideas which older members may have encountered decades ago but which newer members may have never seen. Regardless of your Masonic age, you'll find this small book a delight to read. Whether you devour it on a snowy evening or read a single essay while waiting for car repair to finish, you'll find it a perfect companion and WELL worth the price.

Details: All I can say about this book is WOW! It is great, and as metioned on it's back cover, it really is a portable Masonic Education. All Master Masons will benefit from the wide range of Masonic subjects covered in this small book no matter how long they have been on the path. The book consists of easily read short Masonic essays by past authors who were recognized experts at the time of their original writing. Brother Michael R. Poll is a highly talented Masonic Editor who is leaving a wonderful legacy of Masonic books full of Masonic and Rosicrucian Knowledge to future generations. Read his books Master Masons and eat anti-masons for lunch and giggles, like I do.
