Everything that you ever needed to know about British titles and the honours system - in the present and in history - in one easy to read and informative book.

What are the Orders of the Bath and the Order of Merit and why are they different to the Order of the Garter? Which titles have become extinct and why? Do present day Dukes and Earls live in fairytale castles or do they have jobs like the rest of us? Life peers outnumber hereditary peers in the House of Lords. Why and who are these life peers? Find out about M.B.E's, O.B.E's and C.B.E's, knighthoods, damehoods, and chivalric orders that date back hundreds of years. A number of titles were invented to give Charles II's illegitimate children status. But which ones?

The Canadian Honours System
Author: Christopher McCreery
Publisher: Dundurn
ISBN: 1459724178
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 867
Book Description
This updated, full-colour illustrated book recounts the history of Canada’s various national orders, decorations, and medals. This expanded and updated edition of The Canadian Honours System surveys the history of Canada’s various orders, decorations, and medals, from New France’s Croix de St. Louis, Britain’s the Order of the Bath, to modern Canadian honours such as the Sacrifice Medal and recently created Polar Medal. Since the establishment of the Order of Canada in 1967, the Canadian honours system has grown to become one of the most comprehensive in the world — with more than 300,000 Canadians having been rewarded over the past fifty years. Each honour in the modern Canadian honours system, and its precursor, the British imperial honours system, is examined here in detail, including historical background, design, and criteria for bestowal. With special chapters on heraldry, protocol, and the proper mounting and wearing of medals, The Canadian Honours System is an essential reference for anyone interested in Canadian honours.
