The St. Patrick's Day parade in Cleveland went from 149 years old to 175 in just one year. How did that happen? The answer, and a whole lot more, can be found in the gorgeous new book chronicling this cultural phenomenon in Cleveland: "The Day We Celebrate: 175 Years of Cleveland's St. Patrick's Day Parade."
