Maine Masonic College

Recommended reading

Depending on who you are, your interests may be quite different from others. Here we'll try to provide a short list of books and videos, selected with you in mind. (Please note that books for Masons are selected based on the Jurisdiction of Maine. If you're not a member/becoming a member in our state, you should consult your own jurisdiction for their advice as well.)

We're just developing this portion of our site. Please come back soon! Don't miss our TOPICAL LISTS as well.


Thinking of becoming a Mason?

There is no single book which will give you 'everything' about Freemasonry. It's a 300+ year old organization and is each jurisdiction is slightly different from the other. There are, though, some basic books which we feel can help you survey the organization from a broad perspective to decide whether or not you might be interested.
