Synopsis

Excerpt from Heraldry Simplified

The Science of heraldry or more properly that of armory, is one that has received but little attention in this country, although in Europe its study is considered to be as necessary to a polite education as is singing or music in America. Born with Feudalism, its original purpose was to identify persons and property, for which no other invention has been able to supersede it. It attained its full growth in Mediaeval times, the literature of which cannot be thoroughly enjoyed by those not conversant with at least its rudiments. To — day it is prized by all who are able to boast of honorable ancestry.
