Description

Heraldry is now. Heraldry is fun. And most of all, heraldry is Canadian! A Canadian Heraldic Primer dispels, once and for all, the parable that coats of arms are boring, snobbish, mediaeval holdovers that haven’t any relevance lately.

Using cartoons, humour, and not a bit of irreverence (through which is concealed a surprising amount of information), Kevin Greaves explains the history at the back of heraldry’s unique conventions and language, and explores its creative possibilities. He shows heraldry as a part of the fabric of Canada’s past, present, and future, and illustrates how this vigorous art has change into livelier since Canada turned into master of its own heraldic system in 1988.
