Six Flags Great Adventure has been the premier destination for family fun in the Northeast for over 40 years. Created by Hollywood scion Warner LeRoy, the park's mission from the very start was to be the biggest and best theme park with record-breaking thrills, spectacular shows, and unique experiences that could only be found at Great Adventure. As a part of the Six Flags family of theme parks, Great Adventure combines the world's largest safari park outside of Africa, a world-class theme park, and one of the biggest and best water parks in the United States to create an experience like no other. Images of Modern America: Six Flags Great Adventure is a compilation of years of research and collecting of photographs by Harry Applegate and Tom Benton, lifelong fans of the park and creators of the website GreatAdventureHistory.com. This book, like their website, celebrates the history of the world's largest theme park with its thousands of current and former employees and the millions of guests who have come together to share a Great Adventure.
