[MR] 1845 Heraldry manual at Project Gutenberg

[Bruce Glassford]

Project Gutenberg has the Manual of Heraldry, 5th edition available - I 
ran across it recently.  May be of interest to some.  The direct link to 
their downloads page is http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/16273

The book does not appear to have a publication date on it (however the 
Order of Precedence shows "as of the present time, ...the 8th year of 
the reign of Queen Victoria", which would be 1844/1845. It also claims 
400 woodcut engravings. I used Sunrise XP and stuck it on my (very OOP, 
alas) Palm handheld - about 1.5 MB downloaded with the illustrations. 
The plain text is considerably smaller.
