Thomas Wotton’s “English Baronetage” is a classic, mid-18th-century history of English heraldry. Published in an extensive set, this work covers royal families, family lineage, and most importantly the family crests. Wotton sought to provide a thorough collection of illustrations of family crests and coats-of-arms which are included in this 1771 set. This set features 36 plates, each with numerous engraved figures – including crests of the line of King James and Charles I.

 

This 1771 three-volume edition was written, edited, and explained by Edward Kimber and Richard Johnson who based this edition on Wotton’s original.
