From the Bookshelf: The Oxford Guide to Heraldry

The art of Heraldry was born in the Middle Ages, and while it still survives and has evolved somewhat, it will always harken back to the aspects of medieval society that made it what it is. And while its symbolism and rules may seem too esoteric, a little study and the willingness to learn are all you need to understand the mysteries of Heraldic devices. An excellent resource for in-depth study is The Oxford Guide to Heraldry by Thomas Woodcock and John Martin Robinson. If Heraldry really is your thing, see why Woodcock and Robinson's work is worth your time in this review by your Guide.
