Who are the Royal Black Knights? Using primary documents including journals and reports as well as historical writings this book addresses the question. It considers the history of the Institution and its' experience in the Province of Nova Scotia. This is supported with records and photographs. As well it includes a listing of the Royal Black Preceptories and their Officers across Canada and Newfoundland in 1925 which will be of interest to historians and genealogists who are doing their own research. It appears as reported from the 1925 Report of the Proceedings of the Grand Black Chapter of British America. There were 349 Preceptories with some in every province from British Columbia to Nova Scotia and also Newfoundland. There is also a listing of all members who passed away during the year. As well it includes the Grand Master's Address from 1925 which reflects the issues that were important to the Royal Black Knights.
