Excellent book!
|
Even though this is the only biography of Walt Disney I've read, I thought it was an excellent one. The book is really complete with a lot of research to be able to discover the man behind the myth and gives a rounded image from different perspectives, without judging.
Walt Discney was a very complex person, and it was extremely interesting to find out more than the "Uncle Walt" image and to be left imagining the reasons and motives behind his actions. I was left glad to discover more about him and my admiration for Disney and his work is only greater even though I definitely disagree with a lot of things he has done or has been during his life.
If you're interested in Disney in any way, shape or form I strongly advise to read this book, it's seriously worth it!
