Belief & Truth, Inside the Freemasons
£40.00 GBP
'Belief & Truth, Inside the Freemasons' is an exploration of the mysterious brotherhood of Freemasonry by Caitlin Chescoe. Born into a family with three generations of Freemasons, this book goes beyond her close links and reveals insightful surprises about the 300 year old organisation. Having long been labelled an 'old boys club' and 'secret society', Chescoe shares the individual experiences of both male and female Freemasons focusing on the many pre-conceived ideas about Masonry through a series of portraits, interiors, still lifes, archives and testimonials.
Accompanying the documentary series is an essay written by Camilla Brown which further investigates the history of Freemasonry and its public perception, discussing the roles of gender, religion, class and charity as well as a photographic history.
204 x 260mm, 140 pages, hardback covered with blue linen, foil embossed in gold on the front, back and spine. Includes a 120 page main image section with two gatefold throw-outs, plus a 20 page archive section.
