New Book Out With Lambda Chi References
Greetings, Brothers!
I just got a copy of a new Masonic book, AMERICAN FREEMASONS, that has two specific references to our Fraternity. The book's Introduction starts out with a short story about Brother Harry S Truman. Then, on page 182, there is an old "staged' photograph, captioned "Lambda Chi Alpha," showing a Pledge being "wacked' with a huge paddle monogrammed with Lambda Chi Alpha. It is obviously a "joke" photo, but it is still an interesting choice to include in this book. The section on the Masonic influences on Greek Letter Societies is very short (and not too well researched). It doesn't even mention the Miami "Triad!" Oh, well....
The book is beautifully illustrated and gives a reasonably complete overview of the role Freemasonry has played throughout our country's history.
Yours in ZAX,
