Text by Bob Silva Foreward by Larry Schwabenland Created by many who were there, this book chronicles the "Rebel Decade" - perhaps water sports most exciting and dangerous era. Here are the racing legends who reigned in the heyday of hot boat builders, drivers and crews. These were the mavericks who pushed the limits of speed on water, determined to be the first to smoke-the-water with the sleekest, most dynamic, thunderous, fire breathin', rooster tail spittin' gas and blown nitro wood flat bottoms and hydros in drag boat racing. Featured are racing legends Larry Schwanbenland, Ray Caseli, Gary Gabelich, Dwight Bale, Rene Andre Maddox, hot boat builders Rich Hallett, "Sanger Jack" Davidson, Rudy Ramos, engine builders Keith Black, Dave Zeuschel, Ed Pink, Louis Unser and many others who reigned in those early days of drag boat racing.
