Featured Collectable Book of the Week - The Story of Walt Disney by Diane Disney Miller as told to Pete Martin

Walt Disney biography by his daughter Diane Disney Miller


"My father's name is probably one of the most well-known names around the world, but as the 'brand' or trademark has spread, for many, the man has become lost," said Diane Disney Miller in a statement regarding the Walt Disney Family Museum which opened in October.

This isn't the first time Miller, the only biological child of Walt Disney, has sought to educate the world about her father. Over fifty years ago, she offered unique look at the life of her father in the biography The Story of Walt Disney.

Through dozens of photographs and personal experiences, Miller revealed the man behind the mouse. Considered a "must read" for fans of Walt Disney, the book was re-released in 2005 on the 50th anniversary of Disneyland however, the original 1957 copies are a rare and beautiful find.
