This second edition of the present work offers descriptions of
nearly two thousand coats of arms, with the name of the first of
the family in America, the date of his arrival and place of
settlement, and, in the majority of instances, the town or country
whence he came. The plan of the work resembles in the main that of
Burke's General Armory in England, except that the latter includes
only the arms of persons of British ancestry, whereas this book
goes farther, including the arms of those whose ancestors came from
Continental Europe. Mr. Crozier asserts the descriptions of the
arms, and the data, carefully collated and verified, have been
inserted only when actual examination of the necessary records has
shown the family to be entitled to the distinction. Softcover,
(1904), repr. 2009, 2011, Alphabetical, Dictionary of Terms, 156
pp.
