Summary: Wooden Wonders, Parabolic Feats
Review: This is a marvellous guide to roller coasters around the world, from the new, parabolic kind (e.g. Steel Phantom - Kennywood Park Pittsburgh, Viper - Six Flags L.A.) to the classic wooden coasters such as Thunderbolt (Kennywood), Collossus (Six Flags Great America), Comet (Six Flags Great Escape) and the Cyclone (Astronland, Coney Island). It also reports on the extremely exciting developments in Europe (Pepsi Scream Machine - Blackpool; plus the new wooden wooden sensation in rural Wales). For the devoted enthusiast this is the ultimate guide.

Review: This is and excellent book for anyone interested in roller coasters. Everything in it is great, photos, history (nice old photos), how coasters work, important players in coaster developement, and great sections on amusement parks and popular roller coasters. Remember that this book was published in '98 and does not contain newer designs and coasters, but this book is still excellent!
