Synopsis

Then at the age of forty, I was able to finally to see the drops and thrills at amusement parks for what they really are-an exciting experience that will always take your breath away and have you craving more! There is a certain magic to being at an amusement park that you just don't experience anywhere else.Many people asked me, "So why write a second book on amusement parks and roller coasters?" My answer was easy. With the success of the first edition, the answer was quite simply. "Why not?" This time around I also wanted to talk about our nation's best water parks and finest thrill rides. The intention of this book is to explore the best coasters and parks around the country that I have experienced firsthand-to explain why these rides are so breathtaking.In this latest edition, you can expect to find the most- innovative and most interesting rides that this industry has to offer. You will also find everyday tips for amusement park safety and a section on how to plan and pack for your amusement park experience. There are also tips to getting through security for you and your family as well. Finally for those who are still afraid of roller coasters and thrill rides, I have more tips on how to enjoy the ride and beat that beast "in everyone's head" that I call the "fear factor." So sit down and strap yourself in for another edition in my personal guide to ride series!, This is a classic story of a man who, for most of his life, was afraid of roller coasters and other thrill rides.

    I’m very satisfied with my purchase. Although it did arrive a few days late, it was definitely worth $18 for a densely packed, 1000 paged textbook with lots and lots of questions to reinforce your understanding. In terms of the seller and the condition of the book, the seller was very truthful in their description, and marked the book as “acceptable”. I’ve only explored a fraction of the book, and as far as I’m concerned, the majority is “good”. I’m very happy, it looks great, great quality.

    Wow! I received the book I purchased in record time! It arrived in better than expected condition (was listed as Acceptable, but I would call it New). Was packaged securely for mailing. The price was the best I had seen and I couldn't be happier that I decided to buy it. I would definitely buy from this seller again, and would recommend them to others, as well. Thank you, seller!
