American Members of Foreign Orders (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from American Members of Foreign Orders

Orders the number of Citizens is limited and in a very few, only a restricted number of foreigners can be honored. The Black Eagle of Prussia, the White Ele phant of Siam, the Garter of England, St. Hubert of Bavaria, St. Alexander of Russia and a few others are for sovereigns or persons marked for special honor. A small number are reserved for persons of noble birth, while at least two, the Crown of Maximilien - Joseph of Bavaria and the Papal Order of Pius IX, confer a noble rank and title.
