Covering everything from the Aztecs to the Air Force, mermaids to MI5, and samurai to sewing machines, this is a stunning directory of the heraldic emblems that are as unique as a fingerprint, and are as relevant today as they were to the aristocratic knights in the tourneys and jousts of the great age of chivalry. |
