About this product

Product Information

The time has come to chronicle a photo archival book of Drag Boats of the 1960s aptly named "The Rebel Decade." This was the birth of "whip-start" dragsters which led to today's organized drag boat racing. Recognized and featured are those racing legends like Larry Schwabenland, Ray Caselli, Gary Gabelich, Dwight Bale, hot boat builders like Rich Hallett, "Sanger Jack" Davidson, Rudy Raymos, engine builders Keith Black, Dave Zeuschel, Ed Pink, Louis Unser and many others who reigned in their heyday. These mavericks dared to mix unleashed speed-on-the-water with smoke and fire, thunderous nitro or powerful blown gas while avoiding the moment when their boat could take a deadly spin, nose dive or flight--many failed. Drag Boats of the 1960s Photo Archive is a team effort by many of those who were there; only they could have created this riveting history on the fastest, most exciting and dangerous era in water sports.

    Awesome book!! Photos and history that you can't find anywhere else.

    I was excited to get the book as I am restoring an old drag boat myself. As soon as I go the book, I opened it up and couldn't put it down. There is a lot of history in this book that I had no idea about and I have been around the sport since I was a kid. Great photo's and an awesome book to have if you are at all interested in the history and how drag boat racing started.

    Dragboats of the 1960s

    Great Book with many photos and views of boats from that era. Brought back memories of seeing these boats run and the personalities involved. Many views not seen before even in publications of tht time. Kudos to the authors.

    The golden days of drag boats.

    I thought this book was fantastic. The photos are clear, the color is bright, I wish there were more color, but over all I would recommend this book to anyone that likes drag racing. Now if they would come out with a book on 70s and 80s drag boats.
