Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Design your own coat of arms: an introduction to heraldry
Great book for beginner Heralds!!!



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Better for older children
In this book there is more historical information, and descriptions. Great for older children that can draw well.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Elementary
This book provides a very elementary introduction to Heraldry. The basic layout of a Coat of Arms is discussed, including a very brief history, along with the rules of placement and description for the major elements. The author also includes some discusion of the prevailing Heraldry of countries around the world, including medieval countries. The appendixes include elements for the user to trace or imitate when creating their own Coat of Arms. Lastly there is some contact information for organizations involved with Heraldry.

The book lacks depth. It provides nothing resembling an exhaustive list of elements; only a few basic forms and styles are covered. Further there is nil discusion concerning the meaning of the elements presented. The most a reader can learn is that crowns and lions rampant are symbols of Royalty, and some of that we have to infer. The work feels directed to early middle school children and should probably be marked as Young Reader.
