This is a book that looks at Freemasonry from several perspectives: histori-cal, statistical, and sociological. Within these pages you’ll find hard-hitting analysis of contemporary Masonry and answers to these questions.

• How did solicitation help the Odd Fellows and Knights of Pythias with their memberships in the 20th century?

• Who was the “invisible” Masonic hero who helped shoot down ADM Yamamoto during WWII?

• Why did the York and Scottish Rites’ relative membership positions in Freemasonry switch in the 20th century?

• Which American fraternal group’s membership was 108% of Freemasonry in 1905 and 4% in 2000?

• Who was Sally Salisbury and how did she figure into Masonic toasting?

• What are the cycles of American Masonic membership?

• What do Americans tell independent polls they think about Masonry?
