Description
A detailed history of Napoleon’s Legion d’Honneur, the premier order of France with various titles depending on degree, such as Chevalier, Officer and Grand-Croix. This is a very good copy of the First American edition. The spine is faded and very slightly frayed at the head and tail. The contents are fine, with a repaired front hinge and a discreet bookplate on the front pastedown.
