I wasn't sure what to expect with this book, but man, I was just in awe with every page I turned. I love that it focuses on the Walt era, and with the removable memorabilia replications (hand-written notes from Walt, himself!), it's totally unique. I HIGHLY recommend this book to any and EVERY Disney fan out there!!!
