What reading level is Heraldry Ancient And Modern Including Boutells Heraldry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Alliance by marriage was, in the latter half of the fourteenth century, represented on shields by Impalement, the husband's complete arms being placed in the dexter half, and the wife's in the sinister. This was blazoned parted per pale, Baron and Fenune. "Husband and wife" is used in this work, to make the explanation more distinct, but the early heralds considered that Baron and Femme was the only admissible blazon.
In Impaling two coats of arms (and also in quartering), the arrangement and p...roportions of the charges are adapted to the altered space afforded by the impaled shield. The manner in which the early heralds represented charges on divided shields is very interesting. The shape of a lion or other beast was drawn to suit the space, without in any way detracting from the characteristic heraldic appearance of the beast So also with many inanimate charges: the maunche in No. 272 fills up the quarter ; the hanging part of the sleeve is bent backwards to fit the base of the shield, without in any way destroying the sleeve itself.
