"Scottish heraldry begins in the mid thirteenth century, when material of Scottish interest first appears in a number of English and Continental rolls-of-arms. This early evidence, pre-dating the appearance of the Armorial de Gelre in 1370, has barely been explored, and a major contribution of Bruce McAndrew's study of Scottish heraldry is its pioneering work on material from the period prior to Gelre. Building on this foundation, the author surveys the evidence from a wide range of sources dating from the thirteenth century to the seventeenth, when the early volumes of the official Lyon Register appeared." "Two hundred computer-generated chart pedigrees are accompanied by full-colour coats of arms, among them those of the Stewarts, Douglases, Murrays, Hamiltons, Gordons and MacDonalds."--BOOK JACKET.

Stevenson's Heraldry in Scotland (1914) is the most authoritative and most readable modern treatise on the legal and administrative aspects of Scots heraldry and a must for the serious student of the subject. Unfortunately, it is hard to find except at great expense in antiquarian bookshops and on specialist websites. This new edition brings a classic of the field to a new audience at a reasonable price. The two volumes have been amalgamated into one, and slight rearrangements made, but the contents follow almost exactly the Maclehose Glasgow edition. The several colour illustrations could not be reproduced here except as half-tones, but are available for download at www.brucedurie.co.uk/books.htm. John Horne Stevenson MBE, KStJ, KC (1855-1939), was an advocate and genealogical lawyer.
