'Walt’s Disneyland’ covers familiar ground from the unique perspective of Walt Disney with layers of fresh details, long-lost secrets, hidden spots, little-known facts and rarely seen photographs that should delight even the most jaded Disneylanders who think they’ve read and seen it all before.

" This strangely fascinating book lays out his thinking as well as some recipes — from Adventureland’s 'Pineapple Polynesian Ribs' to Main Street, U.S.A.’s 'Potato Salad.' "

" Smothers’ creation isn’t a cookbook. It’s a history book with recipes, one that required travel, two years of researching, writing, and a dogged determination to tell a tale about Disneyland that had never been told before. "

" One of the nicest, most lavish, fun, fresh, fact and photo-filled books ever written on Walt Disney has burst on the scene like a roller coaster car roaring into the sunlight from inside the Matterhorn. "
