Paperback. Zustand: Good. Heraldry is a colourful art with special rules and methods - a system of symbols denoting prominent families and institutions; a display of pageantry; and an invaluable aid to historians. Even a slight knowledge of heraldry can make all the difference in tracing family histories, and in looking at old houses, churches and monuments. This illustrated guide to the history and significance of heraldic symbols is written by Officers of Arms with full access to the records and manuscript collection of the College of Arms, the heraldic authority for the UK. It is both an introduction to the subject of heraldry, and an up-to-date record for experts. Subjects covered in this book include the origins of heraldry, the composition and appearance of arms, how and why they were, and still are, granted, their evolution as families grow and intermarry, and their use as decoration. While most attention is paid to Britain, there are also separate chapters on American and European heraldry, the latter covering France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland, Russia, Austria, Belgium, Portugal and the Netherlands.…
