I just received my personal copy of Donald Duck--The Ultimate History by JB Kaufman and David Gerstein.
Like it predecessor "Mickey Mouse --The Ultimate History" it is massive and it is a must-have.
I had a chance to read the full manuscript a few weeks ago and, from cover to cover, it is full of new information and illustrations that I had never seen before.
As you can expect, knowing me, the chapters that I found the most fascinating were those about the abandoned Donald Duck shorts, which are extensive and amazingly detailed.
I realize that this is not a cheap book, but owning is really, really worth it. I am convinced that you will not regret it.
I really hope that both Taschen, JB and David have many more surprises of this caliber for all of us.

Is it just me or are Pierre Lambert's art books getting better and better with each new release!!?
I just received my own copy of his Cinderella and I was absolutely stunned by its content. So much artwork that I had never seen before, including a much larger amount of pre-production art that ever before (at least it feels that way).
This is a must-have if there is one this holiday season. My advice: Get it as soon as you can!
