Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This narrative documents the rise of Anti-Masonry, a movement that emerged in the 19th-century United States in reaction to the Freemasons, a fraternal organization. The author traces the movement's origins to speculative Freemasonry, the secretive rituals and oaths of the organization, and the ideas of equality and republicanism prevalent at the time. The book delves into the events surrounding the abduction of William Morgan, a former Freemason who planned to publish the secrets of the organization, which became a catalyst for the movement's growth. Through the exploration of trials, arrests, and political maneuvering, the author provides insights into the complex interplay between Freemasonry, politics, and social change in the young American republic. This narrative offers a valuable historical account of the Anti-Masonry movement, shedding light on its ideological underpinnings, its impact on American society, and its enduring legacy in shaping the nation's understanding of secret societies and the balance between individual rights and collective interests.
