Armorial Général The Armorial Général is a monumental work, containing descriptions, or blazons, of the arms of over 130,000 European families, alphabetically arranged and accurately described. It was compiled in the late 19th century by Johan Baptiste Rietstap from the Netherlands. In addition to a full description of the arms, many entries identify the nationality of the arms bearer, his title, and the conferrance date. Never before has it been possible to use the Armorial Général as a virtual ordinary and search its blazons at lightning speed for particular charges, tinctures, mottos, etc. No more searching for days through hundreds of pages in libraries or second hand bookstores. With Blazon Search you have the entire work at your finger tips. Try it out for a month for only $5.00 !
