réf. 46314Farnham: Ashgate 2013. 1st edition. "By the end of the twentieth century Freemasonry had acquired an unsavoury reputation as a secretive network of wealthy men looking out for each others' interests. Yet.this view contrasts sharply with the situation at the beginning of the century when the public's perception of Freemasonry in Britain was much more benevolent with numerous establishment figures including monarchs government ministers archbishops and civic worties enthusiastically recommending Freemasonry as the key to model citizenship.Through an examination of the subject of Freemasonry and the British press a number of related social trends are addressed including the decline of deference the erosion of privacy greater competition in the media the emergence of more aggressive and investigative journalism the consequences of media isolation and the rise of professional Public Relations." Pp.xvi/361 occasional figure illustrations owner's name to half-title page. Black cloth dustwrapper. VG/VG. Farnham: Ashgate, 2013. hardcover

"Captain George Smith was a Freemason of some distinction during the latter part of the 18th century. Although born in England he entered the military service of Prussia being connected with noble families of the kingdom. During his residency in the kingdom he was initiated in one of the German Lodges. On his return to England he was appointed Inspector of the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich and published The Universal Military Dictionary in 1779 and Bibliotheca Miliaris in 1783. Captain Smith in 1783 published a work entitled The Use and Abuse of Freemasonry: a work of the greatest utility to the Brethren of the Society to Mankind in general and to the Ladies in particular. The interest to the ladies consists in some twenty pages in which he gives the "Ancient and Modern reasons why the ladies have never been accepted into the Society of Freemasons" a section the omission of which would scarcely have diminished the value of the work or the reputation of the author. The work was published without the sanction and the Craft being wiser than their representatives in the Grand Lodge the edition was speedily exhausted. In 1785 Captain Smith was expelled from the Society for "uttering an instrument purporting to be a certificate of the Grand Lodge recommending two distressed Brethren." - See Masonic Network.

"Wellins Calcott saw in Freemasonry something more than a museum of Medieval relics and more than a set of convivial clubs and undertook to write a rational or philosophy on the Craft becoming thereby the first of a line of greatly distinguished Craftsmen in which were to stand Hutchinson Preston Oliver Mackey. He was born at a date not discoverable in available books; in the Minutes of one Lodge he is described as �a native of Shrewsbury county of Salop� in another as from �Salop in Cheshire.� At some date in probably the late 1750's he published A Collection of Thoughts a volume half of quotations and half of his own meditations a type of book dear to readers in that period. He had 1600 subscriptions for it before printing; and it went through five editions. In 1769 and with 1200 subscribers he published A Candid Disquisition of the Principles and Practices of the Most Honorable society of Free and Accepted Masons etc. Oliver described this book so simple so gentle in spirit and with few obvious displays of the classical learning behind it �the gem of the period.� Kenning describes Calcott: �Indeed he may fully be called the father of the Masonic philosophical and didactic school.� - See An Encyclopedia of Freemasonry. Full title reads: "A Candid Disquisition of the Principles and Practices of the most Ancient and Honourable Society of Free and Accepted Masons together with some strictures on the origin nature and design of that institution. Dedicated by Permission To the most Noble and most Worshipful Henry Duke of Beaufort &c. &c. Grand Master. By Wellins Calcott P.M."
