Eso no estaba en mi libro de historia Disney

Was Walt Disney the real creator of Mickey Mouse? Are you familiar with the theory of his supposed Andalusian origin? Did you know that he mortgaged his house to build Disneyland? That he falsified his date of birth so he could go to war? That during the production of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs he almost went bankrupt? That after his death, the company was on the verge of closing? That the studio tried to adapt Don Quixote four times? We all know Donald Duck, Cinderella, Pinocchio, and the magical castle that appears before every film produced by Walt Disney Pictures. But what do we really know about the man who created that enchanted universe? That Wasn't in My Disney History Book invites you to explore the lesser-known--and more surprising--side of Walt Disney and his legendary animation studio, which would go down in history as the dream factory, where, beyond the official story, the truly fascinating lies in what we were not told. This book compiles the most unusual curiosities, hidden anecdotes, and decisive moments that marked the life of the man nicknamed the Wizard of Burbank, from his first steps as a cartoonist to the creation of an unprecedented audiovisual empire. Within its pages, you will discover the dreams, failures, obsessions, and genius of a man who forever transformed cinema and popular culture. In addition, in his research, the author explores the animator's relationship with Spain and goes behind the scenes of his studio to reveal how the animated classics were born, what secrets his characters hide, and how technology, politics, and even World War II influenced their evolution. With a lively, entertaining approach full of unexpected facts, this work will surprise not only Disney fans, but also lovers of cinema and history.
