Action Park Av Andy Mulvihill, Jake Rossen

Often called ''Accident Park,'' ''Class Action Park,'' or ''Traction Park,'' Action Park was an American icon. Entertaining more than a million people a year in the 1980s, the amusement playland placed no limits on danger or fun. Though it closed its doors in 1996 after nearly twenty years, it has remained a subject of constant fascination ever since, an establishment completely anathema to our modern culture of rules and safety. Action Park is the first-ever unvarnished look at the history of this DIY Disneyland, as seen through the eyes of the park''s idiosyncratic founder.
