The author answers these questions and more in this unique examination of the great parades and processions of history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Part chronology, part social history, this book outlines why parades are more than the simplistic, ephemeral entertainment we sometimes assume them to be, as people are often deeply affected by regalia, costumes and uniforms, dances and floats. The book traces the fascinating origins and development of carnival parades, religious processions, protest marches, victory parades, circus parades, parade floats, ship sail-pasts and aerial fly-pasts. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA writer and award-winning special event producer based in Vancouver, Canada, \u003cb\u003eDoug Matthews\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of five textbooks on how to create special events full of emotion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 233\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 10 x 7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 09, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45880086003909,"sku":"9781476688794","price":71.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/DoLms0j4Ps9781476688794.webp?v=1771777654","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/why-we-love-parades-their-history-and-enduring-appeal-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
