The Brotherhood by Stephen Knight

The Brotherhood by Stephen Knight

A classic and highly controversial exposé of the secret world of the Freemasons reissued with a new introduction by Martin Short, author of ‘Inside the Brotherhood’. The Freemasons have long fascinated outsiders. The subject of Dan Brown’s new novel – set for release in 2007 – this secret and exclusive society, thought to be the largest in Britain today, remains a mystery to the many excluded from its ranks. One would never know if a father or brother was a member due to the mandatory vow of secrecy. In this classic, controversial exposé, Stephen Knight talks to the men on the inside – those who have broken their vow of secrecy to reveal the darker side of the ‘brotherhood’. Do they influence the law? Is the KGB involved? And is there is a secret group of Masons running the country today, perhaps influencing every move we make? Fully updated with a new introduction by Martin Short, acclaimed author of ‘Inside the Brotherhood’, this is the unmissable, true story of an ancient, and mysterious brotherhood operating in our midst.

Martin Short is a writer/TV documentary producer whose two outstanding successes to date have been his 13-part Thames-TV series ‘Crime Inc’. about the Mafia, which spawned a Methuen book of the same name which is still in print 10 years on, and his book on the Freemasons – ‘Inside the Brotherhood’. He later produced a 6-part ITV documentary series based on this work.
