Irish Families: Their Names, Arms, and Origins (243 Coats of Arms illustrated in full colour)

Irish Families was first published in 1957. Its aim was to correct errors long current and to present in an accessible form essential facts about Irish nomenclature and families. It immediately established itself as the book on the subject. This fourth edition has been reset; many articles have been revised or added to; additionally there are new appendices and a glossary of technical terms.
