Book excerpt: Where do you feel a nation's heartbeat? In a nation as old as the United Kingdom if can be argued that this heartbeat is not found in a place but at an event: The Queen's Birthday Parade. But what does this annual celebration by the five Regiments of Foot Guards, essentially a private ceremony in a public place, stand for? Why is it so celebrated and why is it so uniquely British? The Queen's Birthday Parade answers these questions with a stunning combination of photographs and text. Fully revised new edition, illustrated with over 200 colour photographs taken over the course of 25 years of parades - including the unique ceremony at Windsor in 2020.
