I want information on Masonic history. What books would be good introductions?

Hodapp, Chris _Freemasons for Dummies_ Recently published, this is a
clearly- and well-written reference for Masons and non-Masons alike.

Virtually anything by Allen Roberts.

Robinson, John J. _A Pilgrim's Path_
Robinson, John J. _Born in Blood_

Stevenson, David, PhD. _The Origins of Freemasonry: Scotland's Century
1590-1710_ (Cambridge, New York: Cambridge University Press, 1988).

_Coil's Masonic Encyclopedia_ is an excellent reference.
