Comic and sitcom star George Lopez will serve as this year's grand marshal, with TV raconteur Regis Philbin taking on a brand-new title, Diamond Jubilee Honorary Grand Marshal (like the parade itself, Philbin is 75). Rudyard Kipling, the bard of Imperial Britain during the 19th century, marked the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria in 1897 with a poem that reflected on the ephemeral character of empire: Far-called, our navies melt away; On dune and headland sinks the fire: Lo, all our pomp of yesterday / Is one with Nineveh and Tyre The book grew out of Riverside's desire to have a history on the anniversary of its diamond jubilee. |
