Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of British heraldry, specifically focusing on the use of "chief" in armorials. The author meticulously details hundreds of coats of arms, each entry providing a wealth of information, including the design, its elements, the families associated with it, and its geographical origin. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in genealogy, local history, or simply the beauty and symbolism of heraldry. The entries are organized by the specific charge on the chief, from simple charges like gouttes de sang (drops of blood) to more complex designs incorporating animals, human figures, and even monstrous creatures. Each description is enriched by historical details, tracing the lineage of families and the evolution of their armorials over time. The author skillfully intertwines the historical narrative with the visual language of heraldry, revealing a tapestry of family pride, regional identity, and historical events. The book serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring legacy of heraldry in British culture and its ability to connect us to our past.
