Subtitle: Compagnies de navigation et navires à vapeur (1831-1988)

Second part of a 15-volume series entitled Histoire du commerce et de l’industrie de Marseille - XIXe-XXe siècles (History of commerce and industry in Marseilles - 19th-20th centuries).

The book, written mostly using the archives of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Marseilles, which played a great role in the maritime development of the city and was presided by important shipowners, described all the shipping companies which operated in Marseilles between 1830 and the end of the XIXth century. For each company, a detailed history, a ship list when available and scale drawings of the ship are given, as well as the house flag(s) of the company. The drawings are in black-and-white but there are three colour plates of flags and funnels in the beginning of the book. About 200 companies and 1,100 ships are presented. Indexes of companies and ships, as well as a rich bibilogrpahy are provided.

The companion book (not seen) is the first part of the series: Armateurs marseillais du XIXe sieàcle, by Roland Caty and Eliane Richard (1986) [rct86], mostly dedicated to the shipowners.

The foreword of the book mentions that a similar work has started for the French ports of Le Havre and Duinkirk.

The book can be ordered online at the CCI; price is 30 Euros.

Subtitle: The first edition of the famous Boutell’s Heraldry, with many reprints including the most recent one by Warne [rha73].

A publishing saga almost as complicated than Flags of the World. The Reverend Charles Boutell wrote The Manual of Heraldry in 1863; however, the second edition, published in the same year, was entitled Heraldry, Historical and Popular. A third edition was published in 1864.

Not long afterwards, he wrote English heraldry, published in 1867; this went to a second edition in 1871, a third in 1892 (edited by the Reverend S. T. Aveling), and a fourth in 1907, edited by A. C. Fox-Davies.

In 1931, V. Wheeler-Holohan wrote an edition which combined elements from both books, and called it [Boutell’s Manual of Heraldry. This was revised by C. W. Scott-Giles in 1950, as [Boutell’s Heraldry. J. P. Brook-Little assisted Scott-Giles with the [1963 and [1966 editions, before becoming editor for the 1970, 1978 and 1982 (the final) editions.

The custom of dressing the black poplar growing in Aston-on-Clun in south Shropshire — known as the Arbor Tree — with flags on flagpoles every 29 May is unique in Britain. new flags are attached to wooden flagpoles on the tree that remain throughout the year. Written records of the Arbor Tree only extend back to 1898, but the tradition of dressing the tree is reputed to date back to a local wedding in 1786. The article attempts to establish the history and context of the tradition and shows how the custom has developed and acquired new meanings, particularly since 1955 when a pageant was devised. The pageant and the celebrations associated with the tree dressing are evolving in response to those living in the local community as well as to the external recognition now accorded to this unique tradition.
