From DJ flaps: With its roots in the pomp and circumstance of feudal times, heraldry began as a way of identifying knights in full armor as they paraded and fought. Today, emblazoned on antiques, china, bookplates, postage stamps, buttons and buildings, it continues to record a family history in an elegant language all its own.A Dictionary of Heraldry is a rich reference guide to the heraldic arts. Elaborately illustrated with color reproductions and specially commissioned drawings by renowned heraldic artists John Ferguson, Andrew Jamieson and Anthony Wood, it covers every aspect of historic and modern heraldry—in more than 1,000 entries. From the basics of a coat of arms to the most intricate heraldic symbols and their subtle meanings, these entries have been prepared by a group of highly distinguished experts including John Brooke-Little, Norroy and Ulster King of Arms, and Malcolm R. Innes, Lord Lyon King of Arms of Scotland.Described in detail are unusual heraldic beasts such as the magnificent griffin; the delicate martlett, a small bird with no feet; and the alphyn, a stocky tiger with a thick mane, a long thin tongue, eagle's claws and a tail knotted in the middle. Some of these tightly drawn entries discuss matters of controversy, like abatements and stains, the armorial symbols of dishonor and bastardy. Others make clear centuries of stylistic changes in heraldic art and answer important questions of protocol, such as under what circumstances an adopted child may use the arms of his adoptive parents.A Dictionary of Heraldry makes it possible for anyone fascinated with pageantry to delve into its mysteries, while serving as an indispensable reference guide for collectors, historians and genealogists. STEPHEN FRIAR is the Director of The Society of Heraldic Arts and has been a member of the Heraldry Society since the age of twelve. He also runs residential summer schools in heraldry and genealogy at Caundle Wake, deep in the Dorset countryside near Sherborne, where he is chairman of the local heraldry society.
