The
United Kingdom has been entertaining the public with its amazing
selection of parks and roller coasters since the late 19th century.
This book features in-depth profiles of 80 roller coasters, from the
7,442-foot Ultimate in Lightwater Valley to Thorpe Park's Stealth,
which goes from 0 to 80 mph in 1.9 seconds.
A compelling series of photographs,
gathered from 38 of Great Britain's most famous amusement parks,
includes many behind-the-scenes perspectives and rare views that
prove these compelling structures are not merely fun rides but also
mechanically magnificent and, at times, visually stunning machines.
Covering the length and breadth of
the UK, this photographic and historic guide takes you from Brighton
up to Glasgow, and from Gwynedd over to Great Yarmouth and provides
the ultimate adrenaline rush.
Review
This book is absolutely brilliant.
It was actually purchased from somewhere else but I’ve had a read of
it today and I love it. It will be a book that I will read for days,
months and years to come.
