In 1852, President Louis Napoleon of France declared that August 15--Napoleon Bonaparte's birthday--would be celebrated as France's national day. Drawing on a wealth of archival evidence, Hazareesingh vividly reconstructs the symbolic richness and political complexity of the Saint-Napoleon festivities.
