Walt Disney's Legends of Imagineering and the Genesis of the Disney Theme Park

I found this book for sale at Disneyland 3 weeks ago. :shrug: Not knowing what was going on with Amazon, I just bought it and canceled the preorder.

Any word if the book has made it over to Barnes and Noble?

Hope you enjoy it, Martin. There was some nice concept art and original photos in there I hadn't seen before (Walt riding the WEDWay prototype, concept art for the magic skyway at NYWF64, etc).

People had ordered this book 2.5 years ago?! I had ordered mine at the beginning of August (it's been on my Amazon wishlist since July) so I only had to wait 4 weeks. I still haven't had time to read it yet so it's sitting on my shelf next to my Imagineering: A Behind the Dreams Look, Since the World Began, and the Disney Mountains book! I'm in the middle of reading Storming the Magic Kingdom right now...which is a pretty good read btw!

Got mine on August 26th.

It's stunning.

I thought it was.....ok.
Not bad, but not in the league as Imagineering or Nickel Tour and some of the others.
A little bit of a disappointment I thought.

I read it as a very different approach to WDI. LOVED reading the personal background stories of the Imagineers. I am about 2/3 through. Wish it had modern Imagineers as well!
