The result is the Better Angles of Our Nature: Freemasonry in the Civil War, a look at the general nature of 19th-century freemasonry in the U.S., and the ways Masonic brotherhood functioned during the Civil War. Co-sponsored by Raven Book Store, which will make copies of the book available for purchase and signing. Free and open to the public.
