I am curious what books you get when joining each degree 1-33 also York Rite.
I am if duncan's ritual is accurate or is it out of date, also what degree is this giving? Does it differ from lodge to lodge? Is there a difference from Duncan's Ritual versus a Masonic Monitor? If so what is a Masonic monitor?
Does the Grand Master receive any different reading material? Can any master become a grand master? Does it relay only on a vote?
I am curious if any accurate accounts of the 4th through 33rd degrees have ever been public? Maybe that old court case when a ex-mason got murdered?
If the Masonic Monitor is different than a ritual book, is there different monitors for different degrees? Is there a seprate monitor for york degrees?
Before Albert Pike changes 4th - 33rd degree is there a record of the old degrees that are public?

Duncan's ritual is supposedly an exposure of New York ritual, as practiced in the late 19th century. While much of it is similar to Masonic ritual used today, a lot of it is not.
Most Grand Lodges present monitors to new members. Monitors are not secret, and can be read by the Mason's wife and family.

That's terrible news.... Why does he say that he isn't revealing any secrets in the preface if it's an exposure?
Do Monitors contain exact depiction of Masonic rituals?
I imagine some would be coded.
I've just read the Royal Arch ritual as you suggested in another thread. (Sadly from Duncan ) : The Royal Arch Cipher raised my interest.

Doe you hav ethe link where you viewed the Arch degrees? Is this the same as york right? Total of four degrees?
Thanks for the replies guys I am trying to get a complete list of workds only issued to masons. Also the scottish rite degrees since you witness them to obtain them are they all covered in the givin book??
What other side degrees are available? Blue,Scottish, and York....?
Do you learn more from the ritual or monitor? I have read some ritual but it seemed not very deep to meaning, maybe I am not making he connection. One of the monitors I read once was very deep on understanding to a more esoteric nature.
Also is there anything handed down by mouth only that would not be covered in any lodge only books/pamphlets?
