The book titled Egyptian Masonic History of the Original and Unabridged Ancient and Ninety-sixth Degree Rite of Memphis is written by Calvin C. Burt. The book is a comprehensive account of the history of the ancient and ninety-sixth degree rite of Memphis, which is a branch of the Masonic Order. The book provides a detailed description of the rituals, symbols, and traditions of the rite, along with its origins and evolution over time. The author has extensively researched the subject matter and has included a wealth of information on the ancient Egyptian influences on the rite. The book is written in a scholarly style and is intended for those with a serious interest in Masonic history and traditions. It is a valuable resource for Masons, historians, and anyone interested in the history of ancient Egypt and its influence on Western culture.This book was written for the purpose of showing what the Egyptian Masonic Rite of Memphis really is; as some of the Craft have not had the advantages of Masonic libraries, and have been made to believe that it is an innovation on the other Rites or Systems.... The Masonic order of Memphis is...the sole depository of high Masonic science, the true primitive rite, the supreme rite, that which has come down to us without any alteration.... In fine, the Rite of Memphis is the true Masonic tree, and all other systems, whatever they may be, are only detached branches of this institution, rendered respectable by its vast antiquity. This book is THE ONLY HISTORICAL WORK IN PRINT COVERING THE EVOLUTION OF THE RITE OF MEMPHIS IN THE UNITED STATES by one of its original members and leaders. It includes the complete texts of documents not obtainable elsewhere and also fascinating extracts from numerous rituals of the Rite of Memphis (including the Rose Croix) before it was abbreviated by Harry J. Seymour and/or John Yarker. Also included are the complete texts of the Forty-third Degree, Adept Installator, Forty-fourth Degree, Grand Consecrator, and Forty-fifth Degree, Grand Eulogist rituals.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
