In 2010, Jim Korkis wrote his best-selling book "The Vault of
Walt." Now Jim has returned to the Vault, and in this revised
edition of his classic book, you'll find your favorite tales plus
five brand-new stories, including: The perilous four-month stint of
famed Warner Bros. animator Chuck Jones at the Disney Studios Why
two women you've never heard of were among Walt's most important
influences Walt's admiration for and brief collaboration with
legendary artist Salvador Dali Walt and Lillian Disney's raucous
30th wedding anniversary celebration in Frontierland How Walt's
early infatuation with polo led to an injury that plagued him for
the rest of his life The story of Cinderella's Golden Carrousel and
the Disney craftswoman who tended it for decades Walt's fondness
for chili and cold weenies, with authentic recipes to create his
favorite dishes
And over twenty more
With a foreword by Walt's daughter Diane Disney Miller, "The
Revised Vault of Walt" is your chance to roam the nooks and
crannies of Disney culture in the capable hands of Disney
historian, master storyteller, and former Cast Member Jim Korkis.
As Diane Disney Miller herself writes, Jim's stories are
..".authentic, so true to my dad's spirit, so unprejudiced and
non-judgmental, that I ... could see the twinkle in dad's eye, hear
his laugh."
"The Revised Vault of Walt" consists of four parts, each with
seven memorable tales about Walt, Disney films, Disney theme parks,
and the many other worlds of Disney. In addition, there's a bonus
section about Disney's controversial film "Song of the South" to
herald Jim's new book, "Who's Afraid of the Song of the South? And
Other Forbidden Disney Stories," also from Theme Park Press and now
available on Amazon.
Note to readers of the old edition: "The Revised Vault of Walt"
omits several of Jim's stories and replaces them with new tales.
The book has been professionally copy edited and features a
brand-new layout - not to mention a much lower price. But please do
remember that most of the content here was also present in the old
edition.
Jim Korkis is the best-selling author of Vault of Walt, and has
been researching and writing about Disney for over three decades.
The Disney Company itself uses his expertise for special projects.
Korkis resides in Orlando, Florida.
