As the United States moved from Victorian values to those of
modern consumerism, the religious component of Freemasonry was
increasingly displaced by a secular ideology of service (like that
of business and professional clubs), and the Freemasons' psychology
of asylum from the competitive world gave way to the aim of good
fellowship" within it. This study not only illuminates this process
but clarifies the neglected topic of fraternal orders and enriches
our understanding of key facets of American cultural change.
Originally published in 1984.

important books while presenting them in durable paperback
