“It was reserved for Oliver to open out for the English Masonic student the great storehouse of Masonic antiquity, Perhaps no one writer has so much contributed to literature in so short a time as did Oliver; and we must fairly concede to him the credit of awakening a love of Masonic study in England, and of being the father of Anglo-Saxon Archaeological investigation.” Bro. Woodford. 1900.
Divided into two sections, this work offers (1) Rituals of building and works and (2) Ritual of work or 'Aphorisms'. The first part covers comparison of the rites practised by ancient and modern Brethren. The second covers maxims and precepts which may confirm our adherence to the laws and usages of the Craft, and elevate the tone of our Masonic life.
The added annex includes a review of the work by Crucifix, along with a suggested list of G. Oliver's works and a list of over 100 references (26 original and 93 new ones).
