| Thousands of Canadian and international civilian and military performers have made the Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo the world's largest annual indoor show. First performed in Halifax in 1979 to mark the visit of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother for the International Gathering of the Clans, the Tattoo has now become a must-see event, drawing more than a million-and-a-half spectators over the years. This sumptuously illustrated book offers both an insider's and a spectator's perspective of the Tattoo over its 30-year history, providing both backstage and front-of-stage views of the event. Drawing from an archive of more than 75,000 photographs, this illustrated history of the Tattoo showcases the spectacle and pageantry of this unique annual performance. |
