Description
It Rained on my Parade Book is a light entertainment read for everyone.
This book touches on the rich history of the military with sometimes quaint, but hard-earned customs and traditions – plus a robust sense of humour.
‘It rained on my parade’ offers light entertainment, through fascinating anecdotes, cartoons and military models, illustrating a soldier’s life through four centuries.
Topics range widely: Fashion disasters like non-waterproof purple plumes, and alarming false-fur bearskins; several quizzes; drum horses who hated laundry, who were invisible and who worked from home.
