AND

The Arch and The Rainbow has been written for as wide a range of readers as possible. For those of you who have only heard about the Mark and Royal Ark Mariner Degrees and would like to know more before joining, this book will tell you all you need and would like to know.

If you have been a member of one or both these orders for some time but have not been able to find something that will explain the background to their ceremonies, and how they came to be part of that Freemasonry to which you belong, then this, too, will answer your questions.

23.6 x 16cm, Hardback: 442 pages, £20.00
