| DisneyWar: The Battle for the Magic Kingdom |
| |
| "When You Wish Upon a Star," "Whistle While You Work," "The Happiest Place on Earth"-these are lyrics indelibly linked to Disney, one of the most admired and best-known companies in the world. So when Roy Disney, chairman of Walt Disney Animation and nephew of founder Walt Disney, abruptly resigned in November 2003 and declared war on chairman and chief executive Michael Eisner, he sent shock waves through the entertainment industry, corporate boardrooms, theme parks, and living rooms around the world-everywhere Disney does business and its products are cherished.
DisneyWar is the breathtaking, dramatic inside story of what drove America's best-known entertainment company to civil war, told by one of our most acclaimed writers and reporters.
Drawing on unprecedented access to both Eisner and Roy Disney, current and former Disney executives and board members, as well as thousands of pages of never-before-seen letters, memos, transcripts, and other documents, James B. Stewart gets to the bottom of mysteries that have enveloped Disney for years. DisneyWar is an epic achievement. It tells a story that-in its sudden twists, vivid, larger-than-life characters, and thrilling climax-might itself have been the subject of a Disney animated classic-except that it's all true.
"DisneyWar is a compelling and often brilliant tale of how Eisner kept his own -- and everyone else's -- stress levels churning. To give Eisner the benefit of the doubt, his intent seems to have been to maintain an atmosphere of creativity while containing the roaring, toxic egos of the numerous barons of the magic kingdom. But in the end, it was Eisner's own ego that swamped and infected Disney."
(Bob Woodward The Washington Post)

Heart of a Soldier: A Story of Love, Heroism, and September 11th
|
| |
| Heart of a Soldier is a true story of bravery under fire, of loyalty to one's comrades, of the miracle of finding happiness late in life. Everything about Rick Rescorla's life came together on September 11. In charge of security for Morgan Stanley, he successfully got all its 2,700 men and women out of the South Tower of the World Trade Center. Then, thinking perhaps of soldiers in Vietnam that he'd held as they died, as well as the woman he loved, he went back one last time to search for stragglers.
