Hardcover. Women - one of Freemasonry's best-kept secrets - are often upper class and highly educated but paradoxically antifeminist, and their self-cultivation through the Masonic path is an effort to embrace the deeply gendered ideals of fraternity. The author unravels this contradiction at the heart of Freemasonry. Num Pages: 256 pages. BIC Classification: 1DST; HBJD; JFSJ1; JFSV1; JHMC. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 60 x 90 x 23. Weight in Grams: 522.
