The
Arms of The
Baronial and
Police Burghs
of Scotland.
Originally
published In April
1903 and
described as a
companion book
to The Arms of
The Royal and
Parliamentary
Burghs of
Scotland. 'The
Spectator'
gave this review
of the original
publication:
"It contains
somewhere
about three
hundred
coats-of-arms,
or an
intimation
that no
coat-of- arms
exists, or,
not
infrequently,
the suggestion
of heraldic
bearings that
would suit the
circumstances.
The volume
does not
promise much
interest to
the reader;
but it has
more than one
would think.
There is no
little
genealogical
and historical
information in
it ; there is
much that the
student of
heraldry
will prize.
The authors,
too, now and
then indulge
in a gentle
jest at the
errors,
heraldic or
other, with
which they
have been
brought in
contact in the
course of
their
inquiries." A
must for the
Civic Heraldry
enthusiast.
A
Clean original
facsimile of the
original, not an
