The Collected Prestonians Vol. 6 2009-2021
Click on the image to enlargeOnly one Masonic lecture a year receives the official sanction and authority of the United Grand Lodge of England. Grand Lodge appoints a Prestonian Lecturer each year, and he gives a paper on a subject of his own choosing. The authors are among the most respected names in Masonic research and, wherever Prestonian Lectures are delivered, they attract large audiences. The previous five volumes of Collected Prestonian Lectures have been 'Masonic best-sellers'. This sixth volume contains the twelve papers presented between 2009 and 2021 and is the first time they have appeared in collected form. They cover a wide variety of subjects of broad interest and are aimed at a general Masonic readership, rather than the dedicated Masonic scholar.
