Informative, entertaining, and worth keeping

Beverly Little,from the Forney Museum of Transportation, in Denver, Colorado, recently wrote us about Ghost Tracks.

“Mr. Hylton has done what many would love to do—researched once
popular sports car racing tracks and gone searching for their remains.
The resulting book is informative, entertaining, and worth keeping for
that day when one feels a need to go exploring.

Former race tracks in all corners of the U.S. are presented with maps,
photos of races, great stories of each one’s grand old days, and is then
profiled on it’s current state of affairs. Sadly, most are derelict or
completely gone—ghosts of their former selves. The book shines a little
light on an aspect of the changing culture of the U.S. that the average
gear-head hasn’t yet realized is gone—but is going to miss mightily one
day soon. Thanks to Mr. Hylton, we have an accurate record to rely upon.”

The Forney Transportation Museum is a one-of-a-kind collection of over 500 exhibits relating to historical transportation. It began with antique cars, but soon expanded to include vehicles of all kinds. Some of these are familiar, while others spark the imagination.  Among the cars in the collection are the Porsche 928 that Tom Cruise drove in  “Risky Business”, Amelia Earhart’s Gold Bug Kissel, and Prince Aly Khan’s Rolls Royce.  Visit the museum’s website at http://forneymuseum.org/
