The Origins of Freemasonry traces Masonioc History in Scotland from 1590-1710, where, unlike England, many Masonic records were retained.with Masonic lodges listed going back to 1599.
With chapters amongst others on William Shaw (born around 1550), Roslyn, The Renaissance, the Rosicrucians, and English Lodges in the 17th Century, rarely written about anywhere, and a good index, it is a really interesting book.
