Is Manly Hall a reputable source for Freemasonry?

I do not think Manly Hall is a reputable source for Freemasonry after reading some of his material. I would say the same thing about Albert Pike. People such as them are a legend in their own minds and have tried to define Masonry for those of us who are in the trenches and are out working in our communities for the betterment of society on a daily basis.

My recommendation is to go to your local Masonic Lodge and talk to the members to get a sense about what Masonry is all about.
