Thank you...sadly my limited language skills don't extend that far, but I can recommend it to some Spanish Speaking Brethren in my lodge who might be interested...
I agree with @MarkR , you need to define what esoteric Freemasons is...
I think Freemasonry is esoteric by nature. We call it THE CRAFT, that label itself is esoteric in that the uninitiated might think we are speaking of a group of basket weavers..
I also agree with @coachn - ignorance is a...
When you say "independence process" I would think you are speaking in terms of the USA, no, not aware of any credible books but they might be out there... I am not a student of American Freemasonry... but you cannot help get exposed to it because so much is written about it.

That's very cool. Never heard of Uncle Dan.... but the skeptic in me wants to dig deeper into this to separate myth from legend from history ;)

So many people join this forum and post, get what they want and leave. That does not feel very fraternal. Thanks for letting us know you have become my Brother.
I will give you this thought on your first steps of that long and hard journey (which is an inclined plane, the...
Coach's answer is good. I am in Australia, so I will give you different answers (for instance we meet once a month, most lodges in the USA seem to meet more often, and we're likely to be a lot more expensive than the average in the USA).
