Looking for books on Freemasons?

by tzucon

Apologies if this is the wrong subreddit to ask.

One of my colleagues is a Freemason, I'm interested in reading about the history and modern practice of Freemasonry. I've found two books on Amazon, but both have fake reviews so I'm slightly skeptical.

Are there any decent books on Freemasonry please, or shall I take my chances on Wikipedia?

Thanks for any recommendations.

English mason here! If you're interested in learning about Freemasonry, one of the best places to start is probably "Freemasons for Dummies" by Christopher Hodapp. If you look past the title, it's a really informative book, it's authored by a mason who really knows his stuff.

You're also very welcome to ask any questions at /r/freemasonry too!
