A Fun and Interesting Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This little book is packed with lots of fun and interesting history and trivia about Disney. It covers everything from parks to rides to hidden Mickeys to the main players such as Walt Disney and Michael Eisner. I've read many books about the parks, Walt, Eisner, etc., and I honestly expected this to be a condensed re-hash of all that. I am pleasantly surprised to find that's not the case. I am also surprised that some of the other reviewers mentioned negativity on the part of the author. I didn't find it negative at all -- and as a Disney enthusiast, I surely would have picked up on that! In contrast, I found it fresh and just an incredibly FUN book. And the price can't be beat!
Interesting Information
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
For anyone interested in knowing more of the facts, details, trivia and a few stories behind Walt Disney World and the Disney Company this is an interesting book. It does tend to have it's dark side, but since it's an "unofficial" book that is expected. It was easy to get over those parts and move onto reading the more interesting facts and trivia provided.
An editorial 5-day hopper!

If you're looking for a Fodor's review look elsewhere! This is a great behind the scenes account on Disney. A must for any Disney Fan! Visiting the park 5 times myself, I found this book a great insight to the Magic and Myth of the happiest place on earth. The book covers everything from the land acquisition, to the history of the rides, to Eisner's Business dealings. Fun, yet frank. Straight to the point without being too biased or negative. Tons of facts. A nice easy read!
