The Odd-Fellows were a secret society (or fraternity) founded in the late-nineteenth century. The author, industrialist William Henry Ford, was associated with many spiritualist movements in North America including Madame Blavatsky's Theosophical Society and the Odd-Fellows. This book is an alphabetized reference text outlining the symbolic meaning and purposes of various objects, colours, plants, and art works. Ford's spiritualist beliefs were incredibly controversial during his lifetime and remain so due to the anti-Semitic propaganda promoted by many of these groups. The Independent Order of Odd-Fellows, however is remembered as a benevolent society that taught its members principles of friendship, love, truth, faith, hope, charity and universal justice. A fantastic reference guide for anyone researching, or simply seeking to better understand, late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century occult practices.
