The Imagineering Story: The Official Biography of Walt Disney Imagineering =
is not for the casual Disney fan used to books packed with colorful Disney = illustration, but for the avid arts reader interested in an authorized biog= raphy of how Walt Disney Imagineering created a theme park that captured wo= rld attention. Connections between Walt Disney's own life and interests dov= etail nicely with the story of how Disney films, theme parks, and the brand=
evolved.
Accompanying a TV documentary of the same name, The Imagineering Story is r= eplete with insider information and history not seen elsewhere, as well as = film-specific insights which will educate and attract film students. From w= orldwide Disney teams to incarnations of Walt Disney's dream, this book is =
a definitive 'must' addition not just for Disney fan collections, but arts = libraries strong in animation and film history, who will receive an in-dept=
h, weighty survey of the evolution of Disney's dream. Even with all the Dis= ney biographies and discussions on the market, there is nothing as in-depth=
, authoritative, or wide-ranging as The Imagineering Story.
