Discussing The Origins of Walt Disney's True-Life Adventures with Didier Ghez

This week, we're blessed to have one of our favorite guests return to the podcast; author & historian Didier Ghez. You may remember the last time he was on the show, he was joined by his co-authors J.B. Kaufman & Ted Thomas to talk all about Walt Disney and El Grupo in Latin America. This time, our guest is flying solo to share the details from another of his amazing monographs. That's right! We spend the episode Discussing The Origins of Walt Disney's True-Life Adventures with Didier Ghez. He shares his inspiration for exploring many of the events that led to The Walt Disney Company creating this fascinating film series. One that built the foundation to many of the documentaries still being made today. 

If you'd like to pick up your own copy of this spectacular monograph released by the Hyperion Historical Alliance, you can find it right here at Stuart Ng Books.
