The Freemasons were in on the ground floor during the construction of the American Republic. This book is a study of the role played by Freemasons in designing the United States, and an analysis of possible symbolic meanings they may have built into the very shape of the nation. It is certainly well known that a theoretical basis for what was to become America existed from the time of Richard Hakluyt and Sir Francis Bacon; whilst the (potential) symbolism of Washington DC's street plan has become the stuff of popular legend. The author's thesis falls somewhere in between: that from 1733 onwards, right up to the statehood of Hawaii in 1959, the alignment, size, shape, and even elevation of the 50 states has been carefully constructed to a plan, a design that identifies America as an architectural phenomenon as well as a political and social unit. The narrative concentrates on the development of Masonic ritual during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries especially their description of the ideal building or Temple and the emergence of a simple but highly symbolic mathematical formula that recurs regularly throughout the history of the Republic.

Social Science, The Architects of America, Did the Freemasons consciously affect the geographical growth of the USA in order to invest the layout of the states with a deeper, symbolic meaning? The narrative concentrates on the development of Masonic ritual during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries—especially their description of the 'ideal building' or Temple—the concurrent construction of America and the role Freemasons played in it, and the emergence of a simple but highly symbolic mathematical formula that recurs regularly throughout the history of the Republic. Maps and diagrams illustrate the surprising coherence of the theory. eBook.

Maps and diagrams illustrate the surprising coherence of the theory.This book is a study of the role played by Freemasons in the construction of the United States, and an analysis of possible symbolic meanings they may have built into the very shape of the nation. The author shows that from 1733 onwards, right up to the statehood of Hawaii in 1959, the alignment, size, shape, and even elevation of the 50 states has been carefully constructed to a plan, a design that identifies America as an architectural phenomenon as well as a political and social unit. It is certainly well known that a theoretical basis for what was to become America existed from the time of Richard Hakluyt and Sir Francis Bacon; whilst the (potential) symbolism of Washington DC's street plan has become the stuff of popular legend. American geographic expansion was based on architectural principles in line with Biblical precedent, the imagery and symbolism of Freemasonry, and the desire to create the new, more idealized society that had haunted the imagination of the West for centuries. The book presents the reader with a fresh perspective on American geographical development, while at the same time raising fundamental questions about the influences that shaped the early Republic, its symbolism and structure, and America s modern day meaning not only to its own people but to the rest of the world.
