Phaceliacapital Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 I saw a reference to a book concerning Disney's corporate history in another book (and I can't recall which as I've been on a reading bonanza, "built to last" or "good to great" or "king of capital" or "new tycoons" or "Creativity" or "Made in America"), I think the title was something with "Attack on Magic Kingdom" or something alike but I can't find it.. Sounds familiar to someone?
peter1234 Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Here is one: Walt's Revolution!: By the Numbers
Poor Charlie Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Disney War by James Stewart Good read. Some Disney history in the beginning but mostly about the Eisner years.
Phaceliacapital Posted August 11, 2015 Author Posted August 11, 2015 Thanks for the input but those are not the books I am looking for (please read this in Obi Wan voice).
gfp Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 There is one titled "Inside the Magic Kingdom" - maybe that is the one? http://www.amazon.com/Inside-Magic-Kingdom-Disneys-Success/dp/1885167237
Poor Charlie Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Storming The Magic Kingdom by John Taylor Book is mostly about a run people made in the 80s to gain control of Disney. Includes some interesting characters (Dismey family / Rainwater - Bass family / Saul Steinberg). Great inside account of a high-profile company during an activist raid.
rishig Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I saw a reference to a book concerning Disney's corporate history in another book (and I can't recall which as I've been on a reading bonanza, "built to last" or "good to great" or "king of capital" or "new tycoons" or "Creativity" or "Made in America"), I think the title was something with "Attack on Magic Kingdom" or something alike but I can't find it.. Sounds familiar to someone? Are you interested in learning about its corporate history prior Iger or its culture under Iger? Under Iger's reign, the culture has been really different from its historical culture.
meiroy Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Creativity had some but can't be sure if that's what you're looking for.
Phaceliacapital Posted March 31, 2016 Author Posted March 31, 2016 Thanks for the replies. I read Creativity, I actually think it's "Storming the Magic Kingdom", there is not even a Kindle version wow! edit: Thanks Poor Charlie.
