I think so.  If I’m not mistaken, this is the book whose title sucked me in some years ago, only to turn out to be a fairly uninteresting discussion of academic robes—hood and trim colors and such.  Not a coat of arms in sight.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that…

You’re not mistaken, Joe. They had it in my college library and I got taken by the title, too.
