    Hey guys,

    Have any of you ever read this book? It's a really good read if you're into the corporate, Disney-nerd stuff (like me!). It basically tracks the strategic direction, takeovers, hits and misses of the Disney Company since Michael Eisner because chairman and CEO in the early 80s. It also has quite a bit about Roy Disney and Stanley Gold resigning from the board of directors and why they did.

    The book is huge though, about 550 pages of heavy reading.

    Have any of you read it?

    Nope, haven't read it.  It sounds interesting though...it would be nice to get a better understanding about the Disney Company before we go...you know, other than what all the Disney movies are about and what characters are in them ;)

    Good to know. I wanted to read it. I have a couple Disney-trashing books to read first...then it's next on the list! Thanks for the review!
