Review Quotes
?Eagles, Odd Fellows, Rainbow Girls, the Grange, the Ku Klux Klan, and many other groups can be found in this alphabetically arranged encyclopedia of extant fraternal societies in the United States and Canada. . . . Each of the 400 or so entries furnishes a brief history, lists the number of members and the membership qualifications, discusses causes supported and benefits derived from membership, describes the ritual, and mentions reference sources. . . . The opening chapter is an entertaining and informative history of the place of fraternal organizations in American culture. Recommended for academic and larger public libraries.?-Library Journal
