The article presents an overview of the book "Heraldry Scotland, including a Recession of "The Law and Practice of Heraldry in Scotland,"" written by George Seton. The field of Scottish heraldry is a peculiarly interesting one, and one very little known to foreigners, who, with the seventeenth and eighteenth-century folios , assume, thanks to the prevalence of haphazard English manuals, that the practice in Scotland must perforce be the same as in the sister kingdom. As a matter of fact, Scottish heraldry in general has, since its inception, been regulated more punctiliously and, perhaps, more intelligently than has that of any other country in Europe.
