The only current authorized edition of the classic work on parliamentary procedure--now in a new updated edition Robert's Rules of Order is the recognized guide to smooth, orderly, and fairly conducted meetings.

New and enhanced features of this edition include: Section-based paragraph numbering to facilitate cross-references and e-book compatibility Expanded appendix of charts, tables, and lists Helpful summary explanations about postponing a motion, reconsidering a vote, making and enforcing points of order and appeals, and newly expanded procedures for filling blanks New provisions regarding debate on nominations, reopening nominations, and completing an election after its scheduled time Dozens more clarifications, additions, and refinements to improve the presentation of existing rules, incorporate new interpretations, and address common inquiries Coinciding with publication of the 12th edition, the authors of this manual have once again published an updated (3rd) edition of Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised In Brief, a simple and concise introductory guide cross-referenced to it.
A history of the ancient Essenes along with their rites, cyphers (memory aids) and ceremonies. Most interesting for the ritualist or student of ritual study. At one time considered a "forbidden ritual" by some U.S. Grand Lodges, this is now an example of the misunderstandings some had towards old rituals or the unfamiliar. This is a classic example of old esoteric rituals confused with Freemasonry. Photographic reproduction of the 1881 edition.
