An inspiring biography of one of the most influential and beloved
figures of the 21st century, based on more than a thousand
interviews. "I've read every book that has ever been written about
Walt Disney, going back to some that were published in the 1930s.
[How to Be Like Walt] is by far the most enjoyable to read of them
all!"
Tim O'Day, Disney Scholar
"How to Be Like Walt is a fitting tribute to Walt's memory and an
important contribution to the Disney legacy . . . Now more than
ever, we need people with the qualities Walt had: optimism,
imagination, creativity, leadership, integrity, courage, boldness,
perseverance, commitment to excellence, reverence for the past,
hope for tomorrow, and faith in God."
Art Linkletter
How to Be Like is a "character biography" series: biographies
that also draw out important lessons from the life of their
subjects. In this new book-by far the most exhaustive in the
series-Pat Williams tackles one of the most influential people in
recent history.
While many recent biographies of Walt Disney have reveled in the
negative, this book takes an honest but positive look at the man
behind the myth. For the first time, the book pulls together all
the various strands of Disney's life into one straightforward,
easy-to-read tale of imagination, perseverance, and optimism. Far
from a preachy or oppressive tome, this book scrapes away the
minutiae to capture the true magic of a brilliant maverick.
