Extracts from Reviews of the Audio CDs
"If you enjoy Raymond Hollins' writing, an even better treat is
to hear it straight from the author. I have a copy of
Ray's "Another Daily Advancement in Masonic Knowledge"
- Ten Short Talks on the Craft. It's a two-CD set and is
absolutely superb. To hear the spoken word with the
intended nuances and inflections of the writer lends an
additional joy to the work. I listen to them on my way to
work and start the day with a daily advancement.
How lucky will future generations feel when they can listen to
the Author first hand? How would we feel if we could
listen to Masonic writers of old? This is a true legacy
for the Craft."
W. Bro. Alan Otton, P.Prov.AGDC, Junior List
Administrator for The UK Mason List
What people say about the First Series
Volumes One - Five
"The set of five are an ideal addition to a Lodge library, as
anyone can give the talks, and will make for a much more
interesting meeting.
"With these booklets, Lodge meetings need never to be boring
again."
John Jackson - Editor - Masonic
Quarterly (MQ) Magazine
"These booklets edited and produced by W. Bro. Ray Hollins - I
could not have hoped for them to arrive at a more important
time.
They are most informative - yet easily read, completely
portable, and also make good bedtime reading - I commend them to
you"
Rt.W.Bro. B.M. Cooper JP, Past Provincial
Grand Master (Worcestershire)
"Now here's a nice idea; booklets, each containing around ten
short ten minute talks (or reads) pertaining to an aspect of
Freemasonry. So next time you don't have any working to
perform in lodge, someone can read out one or more of these
chapters before the stampede to the bar.
So there's something for everyone. I suggest you buy one as a
sampler; I'm sure you will then buy the rest"
Jack Chisholm - The Square
"I have begun to read your excellent booklets - I have to tell
you that this publication of Short Talks is the answer to a
Worshipful Master's prayer!"
W. Bro. R.W. Fountaine, P.Prov.SGW (Bucks) SLGR.
"The Province of Worcestershire has just successfully completed
an ambitious scheme to address this question of education: five
booklets have been produced containing fifty short talks on
areas of Masonic concern. Each is presented clearly, simply and
in a short enough form to be read to a Lodge in ten or fifteen
minutes
I would recommend all Freemasons to buy these booklets; and
every Lodge to purchase a set of them."
Michael Baigent MA, Editor - Freemasonry
Today
"Fifty splendid Short Talks on the Craft - and great value for
money - they will be reviewed in our December issue"
