Summary

In 1972, one of America's favorite playgrounds opened with great fanfare。 Inspired by the post-Disneyland theme park boom, operators of a small amusement enterprise near Cincinnati realized they needed to go bigger-or go home。 They chose big, and so they proceeded to design and build a magnificent property in conjunction with Taft Broadcasting, owners of the popular Hanna-Barbera characters。

The complete story of Kings Island has never been told before now。 Learn how the park came about, how it transformed over the years, and enjoy the stories behind your favorite attractions。 But don't just read about it-hear it directly from park officials who served throughout Kings Island's history, including the man who started the whole thing from the beginning-Gary Wachs。

Kings Island: A Ride Through Time pays tribute to a grand park that millions of guests have fallen in love with for half a century。

I loved this book! I always wanted there to be a King's Island history book and was so excited when I heard this was coming out! Well, I just finished reading it and can't recommend it enough。 Many famous and not-so-famous amusement industry people were interviewed。 I had no idea of all the people that have impacted Kings Island in such profound ways。 Overall, a very insightful book and really gave me a new perspective and appreciation on a park that I love visiting。 Would Recommend!
