I've heard that Coils is also supposed to be pretty good. Which would be the better reference volume to get?

Their are a lot of interpretations of FM, that can be learned from many different perspectives.

This statement is VERY true. That is exactly why my Masonic litterature within my book shelves grows constantly... Always in the search for more Light!

After I was raised, my dad gave me a set of 1873 Masonic Encylopedias by Mackey. They are in good shape for their age, but I have been thinking about getting a newer set as I can tell my use of them has caused a little damage. And at their age they won't take much abuse art all.

In an electronic format like ibooks they are searchable and a lot cheaper. Just sayin'. Since I have embraced the ebook I seldom crack my antique books. Mackeys history is a staple for the collection, also.

I have a copy now and it's a great reference. I have a version with the volumes put together.

Their are so many books to choose from, but I like the older ones in which gives me a perspective from the past to present.
