Publisher Description
Clive Cheesman, ed. 2007. The Armorial of Haiti: Symbols of Nobility in the Reign of Henry Christophe. London: The College of Arms. 216 pp. ISBN 978-0-9506980-2-1. Clive Cheesman proposes to his readers that, once upon a time, the King had clothes, and that his clothes were resplendent. These were the heady days soon after Independence which now, in retrospect, seemed to have been a Golden Age for Haiti, since, for peoples of color at least, hope seemed justified.
