Summary: "TOP TEN" Reference book on the Walt Disney Studios
Comment: Though often overlooked, live-action films brought some of the most talented artists in film history to the Walt Disney Studios. John West takes readers "behind the scenes" on such productions as The Absent-Minded Professor, Davy Crockett, The Gnome-Mobile, The Happiest Millionaire, Mary Poppins, Old Yeller, The Parent Trap, Pollyanna, Treasure Island, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Zorro, and many more.
West's commitment to this project is demonstrated in over six years of research and extensive interviews with studio cast and crewmembers. Noted interviews included Bill Anderson, Ken Annakin, Buddy Baker, Emile Kuri, Dorothy McGuire, Sam McKim, Fess Parker, Richard Sherman, Robert Sherman.
Behind any great film, a fascinating backstory usually resides. John West's book contains scores of interesting stories; all vividly illustrating the talent and creativity that was present at the studio during Walt's lifetime.

Summary: More, more!
Comment: This is a great book, and I hope they write a follow up that focuses more on interviews with the principle screenwriters, actors, directors, and such. Very entertaining, and even in my huge library of over 60 books on Disney,it stands out as being the only book that focuses on their live action subject. The author breaks down each film, listing titel, cast and crew, synopsis, a review (he does a great job at this). He includes behind thescenes information and comments from participants. Very few pictures,I wish there were more. Overall it is very comprehensive considering the library of live action films from Disney is much bigger than most people realize. It is alsocurrently the BEST and most COMPLETE book on this subject. I am grateful at having found this book.
If you want more on the subject of Disney films, I reccommend the following books for sale at Amazon: THe Disney Films by Leonard Maltin; the Disney Studio Story by Richard Hollisand Brian Sibley; The wonderful World of Disney Animals by chief animal trainer William Koehler; Walt, Backstage Adventures with Walt Disney by Charles Shows; One of Walt's Boys by Harry Tytle.
