«Historia del oso y el madroño. Antiguos cementerios de Madrid» is the historical essay by María Isabel Gea Ortigas in paperback (96 pages).
The book explores the origin of Madrid's coat of arms and the question of whether its figure is a she-bear rather than a bear. It reviews the coats of arms the city has had, including the lesser-known one of the Community of Madrid, and recovers the history of the old cemeteries, built outside the walls and later absorbed by urban growth until they disappeared.
Published by Ediciones La Libreria in 2002, it is the first edition and belongs to the La Pequeña Biblioteca de Madrid collection.
For readers interested in the history of Madrid, heraldry, and the city's urban evolution.
