Recommended reading for Texas Masons, especially for those who study Masonic history. This work was commissioned by New Braunfels Masonic Lodge #1109. When global empires declared war on each other, and the social order began to rapidly change as a result, Freemasonry played a key role in bringing order out of the chaos by offering relief across enemy lines. The Republic of Texas and the City of New Braunfels were founded during this period of great change. This book explores: the Masonic history of Texas; the story of New Braunfels; Masonry during The Great War; esoteric teachings and philosophy; the history of New Braunfels Lodge #1109; the history of Comal Lodge #276; and a curated digest of the Proceedings of The Grand Lodge of Texas.

Morgan, Past Master, New Braunfels Lodge #1109. "Discover the foundation of international Masonry and its contributions to Texas and New Braunfels."- Riley C.
