His father served in the Napoleonic army where he became obsessed with Egyptian religion and myth. Upon his return to France in 1815 he founded a freemasonry lodge called the Pilgrims of Memphis but the chapter was disbanded only one year later. He entrusted the archives to his son who reformed and revived the charter in 1839 but his small group of pilgrims failed to receive dispensation from the freemasonry governing body the Grand Orient of France. In 1859 Marconis applied again to the Grand Orient for masonic chapterhood and it was finally granted. This book represents the final iteration of the foundation of the Rite of Memphis a project that took over 40 years to come to fruition.<br /> OCLC locates no copies in U.S. libraries.<br /> Caillet 7116; Dorbon 689. the Author unknown
