This book was released on 2017-06-09 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This plain explanation of heraldry is accompanied by many pleasing coloured plates, and seems to be specially adapted to students of Scottish heraldry in the same way that Boutell, Holme, Cussans, and Mr. G. W. Eve's works apply to the explanation of English armory particularly. It is, however, impossible to compare it to the latter beautiful work, or to "the Symbolisms of Heraldry" by our contributor, Mr. W. Cecil Wade, since the book under review attempts to deal with what is essentially poetic and romantic as a plain matter-of-fact subject, which it never was and never will be. His fellow-countryman, Sir Walter Scott, would have reminded the author that heraldry belongs to the day of the troubadour, the tournament, and the mediaeval pageant, when symbols had the utmost value and power over the minds of men. There is a tolerably large school of antiquaries which declines to see anything in the bearings of heraldry beyond mere lines or figures of objects arbitrarily adopted by their bearers, and which this matter-of-fact school states have no meaning at all as symbols, while it even denies the colour symbolism of the armorial coats and liveries of ancient days! In this school cannot be included many members of our Society. Let all the non-symbolists freely array themselves in amber, pink, or pale green or blue, which are non-symbolic colours besides being non-heraldic, but let all lovers of antiquity follow Sir Walter Scott's ideas of the devicefulness of ancient armory. What a splendid treatise on the whole subject he could have given us had he chosen to do so! --Journal of the Ex Libris Society, Volume 14
