Arthur Preuss (1871–1934) was a German American journalist, editor and writer. He is noted for editing the Fortnightly Review and opposing Freemasonry. He was a conservative intellectual whose father, Edward Friedrich Reinhold Preuss, had also edited a Catholic newspaper.
Preuss does an excellent job of breaking down the ideology and teachings of Freemasonry, especially of American Freemasonry as the title indicates. He extensively uses the writings of Albert Pike and Albert Mackey, as well as many other Masonic publications to show the utter depravity, the deep occultism of this infamous fraternity. This is a great starting point to use in order to start understanding well this behemoth enemy of Holy Mother Church.
