Pennsylvania is home
to many classic amusement parks, several of which began operating
as early as the late nineteenth century. Some of these parks
maintain rides and amusements from their early years, preserving
an atmosphere of nostalgia. Others have evolved with new trends in
the industry, adding high-tech rides and water parks. This book
begins with a concise history of the amusement park, then surveys
the industry in Pennsylvania. A comprehensive guide to 13 parks in
the state and a selection of smaller ones, complete with
information on rides and attractions, follows. Packed with vintage
postcard images and photos.
