Book Reviews of Amusement Parks of Virginia, Maryland and Delaware
Book Review: Very well written & researched.
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently ordered & recieved my copy a few days ago & I must say that it's a fantastic read for anyone who is interested in,or has grown up visiting the parks featured in this book.Having grown up going to Kings Dominion myself I must say that the author has done a great deal of research uncovering facts that even I,a dedicated self proclaimed theme park addict never knew about the history behind the park....of honorable mention,the author's research into Busch Gardens Europe & Six Flags America's history & development is also worthy of reading & learning about.I highly recommend this book for anyone who's grown up with these parks & wants to learn more about their rich history.
