I seldom write reviews, but I really would be remiss if I didn't make note of this book. I downloaded it the other day, and was immediately immersed in what is clearly the most comprehensive work ever created on the Happiest Place on Earth. It is exhaustive, comprehensive, and expansive. It would be a shame if Disneyland didn't sell this book in its stores. Indeed, I think the time capsule buried a few years ago should be pulled out again, with this book inserted in it. There has never been a book that has truly detailed the park like this book has. Definitely the one you will need in your library.

This book, by part of The Un-official Guide to Disneyland team(and it's in the same format) is a solid and readable history of Disneyland. Not a hagiography, nor a tell-all, it's a simple and honest tale of the Happiest Place on Earth by a person who clearly loves the parks and knows the subject.
It's marred only by it's format- due to the book size, it can't have all the wonderful color pictures you would like to see. So, if you can find a copy, get "Disneyland, the Nickel Tour" (which has not much text, but great pictures) and read The Disneyland Story: The Unofficial Guide to the Evolution of Walt Disney's Dream" while paging thru The Nickel Tour to see what Sam Gennaway is talking about.
This book even had stuff I didn't know! Very readable, and a MUST for any Disney history buff or fan of the park.
