RESEARCH SITE ON FREEMASONRY
provides all materials free of charge.
Spero News reports:
An academic at the University of Bradford is helping to make the mystery-shrouded world of Freemasonry more open - and has recently unearthed lost material belonging to a renowned Freemason from West Yorkshire.
Dr. Robert Lomas, an academic based at Bradford University's School of Management, has created a web site called The Web of Hiram.
Originally intended as a personal research tool to aid the writing of his 'Book of Hiram', Dr. Lomas has since donated the material to the University of Bradford as part of the Electronic Special Collections of the J.B. Priestly Library.
The Web of Hiram first went live on the 1 May 2003 and is now rated as the most popular academic site for material on Freemasonry in the world. Unlike some Masonic web sites provided by other universities, all of the material is entirely free for anyone to use. Robert has spent the last 18 years investigating Freemasonry and its impact on society. He hopes that this web site will be of assistance to others who share his passion.
Lomas is co-author with Christopher Knight of a number of books on Freemasonry. Some additional websites by and about Lomas:
The Hiram Key Official Homepage
The Official Website of Robert Lomas
Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas
Templar Lore
There are many, many more.
