Book excerpt: This latest edition of the authoritative guide to roller coasters provides a look at the history of coaster evolution, an exhaustive reference guide to coasters, and a peek into the future of roller coaster technology and design. The book is divided into two main sections. The history section covers the development of the roller coaster from its roots in Europe, when late 16th and early 17th century thrill-seekers constructed primitive ice slides throughout Russia in winter. The guide section features a state-by-state and province-by-province listing of more than 600 coasters at more than 155 amusement and theme parks across the two nations. Each entry includes the park's contact information along with summaries of each coaster's origins, features, and history. This section also includes more than 300 photographs and renderings of the beloved rides that have enthralled amusement-seekers of all ages, from the tamest kiddie rides to the wildest white-knuckle thrillers. Six appendices provide a look at famous domestic and international roller coaster designers, a list of the longest wood and steel roller coasters in North America, a roller coaster census by state or province, a chronology of wooden roller coasters still in operation, a list of interesting amusement park and coaster trivia, and a guide to four alpine coasters which have been constructed at winter resorts in the United States.

This book was released on 2014-09-02 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mega roller coasters of today reach heights of over 400 feet and speeds in excess of 100 miles per hour. Roller coasters towering taller than a certain height are terrifying for many individuals but it would be boring to simply make a list of the world’s tallest coasters. As a result, most of the bone-chilling machines in this list do not use sheer height to terrify, but instead prey on our fears and emotions in other, more creative ways. One element alone may not make a ride terrifying but the sum of all of its parts does. What factors make a roller coaster terrifying? Height, speed, inversions, backwards segments, unique track elements, darkness, and unexpected surprises all contribute to making your head spin and your knees tremble. Where are the most terrifying roller coasters found? Who designs them? Which park builds the craziest rides? Find out by reading The 50 Most Terrifying Roller Coasters Ever Built! The second coaster book from Nick Weisenberger, author of Coasters 101: An Engineer’s Guide to Roller Coaster Design which is the most in-depth look at how a roller coasters are designed, from concept through construction.
