Action Park: Fast Times, Wild Rides and the Untold Story of America's Most Dangerous Amusement Park The story behind one of America's most infamous amusement parks is finally told. Action Park was a place where millions were entertained, but almost as many bruises were sustained. Founded by Gene Mulvihill, the park became an icon of the 1980s, known for its anything-goes spirit and reckless disregard for safety. From testing precarious rides to working his way up to chief lifeguard of the infamous Wave Pool, Andy Mulvihill's story is a hilarious and moving account of life at Action Park. With its unique blend of excitement and tragedy, this memoir chronicles the life and death of a uniquely American attraction and the son's struggle to understand his father's quixotic quest. Packed with the excitement of a day at Action Park, this book is destined to be one of the most unforgettable memoirs of the year.
