Book Description
"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.

The original two volumes were printed in a limited edition and are now hard to find and expensive to acquire. This faithfully reproduced facsimile brings together both volumes under one cover and at a more reasonable price. The format of the facsimile faithfully reproduces that of the originals produced over a century ago by J. H. Stevenson MBE, KStJ, KC (1855-1939), Unicorn, Pursuivant of Arms, advocate and genealogical lawyer.
