Walt Disney dreamed for decades about opening the ultimate
entertainment venue, but it wasn't until the early 1950s that his
handpicked team began to bring his vision to life. Together,
artists, architects, and engineers transformed a dusty tract of
orange groves about an hour south of Los Angeles into one of the
world's most beloved destinations. Today, there are Disney resorts
from Paris to Shanghai, but the original Disneyland in Anaheim,
California, which has been visited by more than 800 million people
to-date, remains one of America's most popular attractions. From
the day it opened on July 17, 1955, Disneyland brought history and
fairy tales to life, the future into the present, and exciting
cultures and galaxies unknown to our imaginations. This bountiful
visual history draws on Disney's vast historical collections,
private archives, and the golden age of photojournalism to provide
unique access to the concept, development, launch, and enjoyment of
this sun-drenched oasis of fun and fantasy. Disneyland documents
Walt's earliest inspirations and ideas; the park's extraordinary
feats of design and engineering; its grand opening; each of its
immersive "lands" from Main Street, U.S.A., to Tomorrowland; and
the park's evolution through the six decades since it opened. It is
a treasure trove of original Disney documentation and expertise,
with award-winning writer Chris Nichols drawing on his extensive
knowledge of both Disneyland and Southern California history to
reveal the fascinating tale of "the happiest place on Earth."
