Heraldry can be traced back to the dawn of history, before writing, when pictorial representations were used to identify individuals, families & tribes.

Here, in one compact volume, is a concise guide to the intricate language & colorful symbolism of heraldry. The evolution of emblems is explained along with shapes, colours, how they combine & what they mean. 100s of b/w illustrations.
