    Overall an enjoyable read
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2023*

I've seen some reviews claiming that this book is "Disney bashing", but let's be honest.  If you think Disney hasn't (and still does) suffer the same issues, problems, pranks, lawsuits, and everything else that most all companies face..  you're an idiot. Disney is a brand, and to some more hardcore fans, a lifestyle. But the image it portrays of family and fantasy cannot protect it from reality. That should be a given.There is some really good history in this book. There are some interesting stories of hijinks and pranks, unfortunate incidents, and some behind the scenes details that aren't readily known by most. Overall, I would definitely recommend this book. I'm not really that much of a reader, but it was difficult to put down.  Admittedly, I am the Disney fan in my family, but I think anyone with even just a passing interest in Disney would enjoy the book.

I first read about this book in a "true crime" magazine during 1992, but it was a few years before I could obtain a copy--I started working in the Middle East in 1994 and it was a bit hard keeping up with the latest books at the time.  Yup!  Instant gratification takes too long!David Koenig's book answered a lot of my questions about what working at Disneyland was like--he also raised more questions about "The Happiest Place On Earth."  I've never been more than a guest at Disneyland: a few friends, a nephew and my sister-in-law worked there.  This is a history book--so I wasn't expecting 1997 ticket prices.  I'm unsure when my 15th printing was published.  A treat was the foreward by Art Linkletter, one of the television hosts who broadcast the opening day show on 17 July 1955.  I had no idea that there had been labor strikes at Disneyland--I didn't know about the Yippie riot that closed the park on 6 August 1970.  The many law suits that "Mouse Tales" chronicles shows that Disneyland is an American icon--people sue Disneyland in order to sue America?  Was this what Walt had in mind when he designed the place as a playground--and as a force for social change?News media people have a negative world view--they claim it is the only way they stay in business.  Koenig didn't pull any punches on the negative, yet he managed to paint Disneyland in a positive light.  Or it could be that I'm simply obsessed with the place.  Isn't "obsession" having a longer attention span than the person who labels you "obsessed?" The feeling of belonging among Disneyland cast members is stronger than in most of corporate America--nearly as strong as in military units, and stronger than the bond felt by most students for their high school or college class.  Part of this is that Walt's spirit still guides--the cast at Disneyland makes every effort to promote the Disney experience for the guests.  The major reason for disappointment at Disneyland is that the guest expected to "do it all" and is overwhelmed by the selection of attractions (over 60!)--impossible to do in a single day.  I took a friend to Disneyland for Columbus Day, 2002, and we logged 48 attractions, rides, shows, plus both Fantasmic! and the parade--it was a long day, I knew the park well, and severe California wildfires left a pall of smoke that blotted out the sun and kept attendance low.  My friend was a bit fried by the hectic pace--he passed out as I drove out of the parking lot--sheer exhaustion!  "Mouse Tales" was a factor enabling us to cover so much ground in one day--and something like a dozen of the attractions were closed that day for maintenance.David Koenig loves Disneyland.  The last words in "Mouse Tales" make his feelings clear:"[T]he shortcomings and selfisheness tha go along with being human don't disappear just because you visit or even get a job at whatt may well be the Happiest Place on Earth."
