Historic heraldry of Britain: An illustrated series of British historical arms, with notes, glossary, and an introduction to heraldry, - Hardcover
Reprinted from the Oxford University Press edition, first published in 1939. An attractive general introduction, as well as an important reference book, written by the Garter King of Arms and drawn on original research from primary sources. The use of leading figures from all periods of British history as examples, from the 10th to 20th century, enables the reader to put the arms and their bearers in a historical context. Although primarily a set of notes on individual armorial bearings, the comprehensive introduction and glossary make this book an ideal general guide to the study of heraldry. Includes descriptions of 142 shields, of which 116 are illustrated, 4 in color, and all show the beauty of good heraldic design. Randeria bookplate. x , 118 pages. cloth, dust jacket. large 8vo..
