Remember that these references are made concerning MEDIEVAL heraldry as used in the Society for Creative Anachronism, and are not meant to be taken as an absolute of heraldic knowledge (though we try). Likewise, these links are being provided by me, Ulf Gunnarsson, and not the College of Arms of the S.C.A.

So if your arms don't pass because you used one of these books, don't blame them, blame me.
