Description
William Henry Whitmore (1836-1900), Boston antiquary and genealogist, wrote this compact manual for American readers at a time when heraldry was widely misused on this side of the Atlantic. It explains the principles of blazonry, gives a glossary of technical terms, and discusses with rare good sense the right of American families to bear arms. With line illustrations of the principal charges and ordinaries.This is a faithful print-on-demand facsimile of the 1866 New York (W. J. Widdleton) edition, reproduced in full from a library copy. The historical text is reproduced without modification; only the format, margins and legibility have been reset for modern printing.
