The Royal Arch Journey

Description

Drawing on many years of research, Neville Barker Cryer tells the story of how the Holy Royal Arch emerged and developed in England, from its eighteenth-century origins and the attitude of the Premier and Antients Grand Lodges, through the first Grand Chapter and the development of its legends and ritual, to the years after 1813.

Along the way he shows why the Royal Arch has always been regarded by many as the culmination of Speculative Freemasonry. A fascinating and at times controversial argument.
