KEARSLEY’s Arms of the Peers and Peeresses of England, Scotland, and Ireland, neatly Engraved, with an English Translation of the Mottos.
They may likewise be had bound with the annual Court Calendar.
A new Edition, including the BENCH of BISHOPS, (Which was originally intended for a separate Work)
The HERALDRY of NATURE; or TEMPORARY ARMS.
Adapted to the present House of Peers, and emblematical of each of the Lord’s present hobby horses, either in the fashionable and dissipated pursuits of pleasure, or the more confined Walks of business; including their domestic amusements and connections, with upwards of Eighty Examples, neatly Etched, by an eminent Engraver.
“This is a new and excellent method of delineating Characters, and saying more in the compass of a Shilling, than can generally be conveyed by mere words in a whole Sheet! How the present House of Peers will approve of these new Armorial Bearings, which are drawn in the true Hogarthian Stile, with great Humour, and no small degree of Satire, is not for us to determine; we must however acknowledge, in Justice to the Author, the Examination of these whimsical Arms has afforded us great Entertainment.”
Vide Review for November.
A cheap and correct Edition of the Works of GEORGE ALEXANDER STEVENS,
