Description
The autobiography of the man who brought the theme park concept to Britain, and created some of the world's most thrilling rides and attractions, is now available. John Wardley shares his fascinating story, from his early beginnings in the theatre, circus and magical cabaret, to his work on special effects in the James Bond films.
He recounts how his association with Madame Tussauds led to the development of Chessington World of Adventures, and eventually, Alton Towers. The book delves into the stories behind some of the park's most famous rides, including his most famous creation, "NEMESIS".
With its seventh edition, this book offers a unique insight into the conception and development of enormous theme park rides, and the people behind them. If you're interested in the world of theme parks, this autobiography is definitely worth a look.
