Description
The most thorough history and review to date of this uniquely American roll of arms, including the full texts of the reviews of a copy made in the 1860s by William Whitmore and in the 1930s of the rediscovered original by Harold Bowditch, with additional new research by the author. With (for the first time) line drawings of all of the arms in the Gore roll, accompanied by additional contemporary drawings and photographs of the arms found in the roll.
