"Scottish heraldry begins in the mid thirteenth century, when material of Scottish interest first appears in a number of English and Continental rolls-of-arms. This early evidence, pre-dating the appearance of the Armorial de Gelre in 1370, has barely been explored, and a major contribution of Bruce McAndrew's study of Scottish heraldry is its pioneering work on material from the period prior to Gelre. Building on this foundation, the author surveys the evidence from a wide range of sources dating from the thirteenth century to the seventeenth, when the early volumes of the official Lyon Register appeared." "Two hundred computer-generated chart pedigrees are accompanied by full-colour coats of arms, among them those of the Stewarts, Douglases, Murrays, Hamiltons, Gordons and MacDonalds."--BOOK JACKET.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900 edition. Excerpt: ... The two shields, therefore, were placed accolee, or side by side. In the letterpress description they were said to be Norman shields. They were in reality of the ordinary heater-shape and not of the kite-shaped type more usually associated with the Normans. They were also said to be surmounted by a helmet of an antique pattern. It was one of the latest and ugliest of the heraldic stationer's type. On the top of this helmet was placed a straight wreath with a quadruped on it, which seemed to be nervously endeavouring to keep its perpendicular on the sea-saw formed by the wreath and the helmet. The design is stated to be surrounded by a scroll ornamentation and a lambrequin; but of the latter's elegant form there is no trace. To crown all, it is, of course, duly described as executed "in the most artistic manner by Messrs Bunkum & Sparkle, jewellers, London." This is by no means an extreme case, but it is merely stupid. No doubt the jewellers did their best, and pleased their customer. The fault was that the craftsman who executed the work had had no sufficient instruction in the capabilities of heraldic art. But sometimes ignorance assumes less excusable forms. Not long ago I discovered the indubitable fact that a very high-class and eminently respectable firm in this very town had supplied a too confiding American citizen with a complete achievement, consisting of the quartered coat, helmet, crest, and supporters of a Scottish peer of the same name, or rather of a name very similar. This was not only foolish, but wrong, though the American customer expressed himself much pleased and gratified with the result. I trust I have led you to understand how useful the study of Heraldry may be both to the student of history and to the artist and...
