The front cover cloth has several, small wrinkles (due to production issues) . There are some ink, markings to the bottom edges of both the front and rear covers., The text pages are clean and bright. There is a previous, owner's bookplate on the front pastedown page. "Heraldry is a, discipline relating to the design, display and study of, armorial bearings (known as armory) , as well as related, disciplines, such as vexillology, together with the study of, ceremony, rank and pedigree. Armory, the best-known branch of, heraldry, concerns the design and transmission of the heraldic, achievement. The achievement, or armorial bearings usually, includes a coat of arms on a shield, helmet and crest, together, with any accompanying devices, such as supporters, badges,, heraldic banners and mottoes. Although the use of various, devices to signify individuals and groups goes back to, antiquity, both the form and use of such devices varied widely,, as the concept of regular, hereditary designs, constituting the, distinguishing feature of heraldry, did not develop until the, High Middle Ages. It is often claimed that the use of helmets, with face guards during this period made it difficult to, recognize one's commanders in the field when large armies, gathered together for extended periods, necessitating the, development of heraldry as a symbolic language, but there is, little support for this view.
