When I mentioned this book on Mineral King last week, I was wondering how much of it was about Disney and how well researched it was. I have now received it and can confirm that 75% of it is about the Disney project and that it is extremely well researched. If you are interested in this period of Disney history, this is a book you must get, although you need to know that it is written from the perspective of someone who strongly opposed the project.

Diddier, Are there many photograths in the book - specifically any of Walt at the location?

Didier Ghez said...

Only three Disney-related photos: Walt with some officials from the region; Walt and a very generic concept art from the project; concept art from the interior of a hotel. Don't buy the book for the illustrations.

But you'd recommend it for its content overall?

No doubt whatsoever. It's a great book when it comes to Disney history.
