A Portrait of Walt Disney World
Author: Kevin Kern
Publisher: Disney Editions
ISBN: 9781368052849
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
This expansive, must-have coffee table book paints a robust portrait of the Walt Disney World Resort, across half a century, through diverse and vibrant voices and mostly unseen Disney theme park concept art and photographs. Walt Disney's vision for the Florida Project begins with Disneyland and the 1964-1965 New York World's Fair. After an imaginative and expansive design, a unique land acquisition process, and an innovative construction period, the Walt Disney World Resort celebrated its Grand Opening in October 1971. It featured a theme park dubbed the Magic Kingdom and three recreational resorts: Disney's Contemporary Resort, Disney's Polynesian Village, and Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground. As Walt Disney World consistently grew and further evolved through the five decades that followed, certain themes reverberated: an appreciation for nostalgia, a joy for fantasy, a hunger for discovery, and an unending hope for a better tomorrow. Inspirational and memorable theme parks, water parks, sports arenas, recreational water sports, world-class golf courses, vast shopping villages, and a transportation network unlike any other in the world resulted in fun, festive, and familiar characters, traditions, spectacles, merchandise, and so much more. The resort has come to represent the pulse of American leisure and has served as a backdrop for life's milestones both big and small, public and private. Walt Disney World: A Portrait of the First Half Century serves as a treasure trove for vacationers, students of hospitality, artists, and all Disney collectors.

After the Bay of Pigs
Author: Pablo Perez-Cisneros
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781489550682
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Following the failed Bay of Pigs invasion, the Kennedy Administration had given a green light to the prisoners' families to make any attempt possible to free their men, as the President felt personally responsible for their plight after his on-and-off support during the invasion. Held in unsanitary and perilous conditions, the prisoners' health and safety were foremost in the minds of their anguished spouses, mothers, fathers, and siblings. During the Summary Military Trial, 99.9% of the war prisoners had refused to blame the U.S. or cave into pressure to admit guilt. After that, explosives were placed in their prisons, to be set off in case of a much publicized "Yankee" invasion. This never-before told story offers today's reader the rare opportunity to experience the unique tug-of-war that developed between the U.S. and Cuba while the families of the prisoners held out hope for their eventual release. In the middle of all of this, the world almost came to an end during the October Cuban Missile Crisis. Rather than despairing, the Families Committee continued to negotiate while the world's superpowers faced off. The book is a negotiator's handbook par excellence. James B. Donovan's technique of persuasion, bluff, and prior homework sets the standard for any would-be negotiator today. Read on to find out how perseverance and boldness pays off even in the face of incredible odds, and you will realize how the price of freedom is as dear and as cherished today as it was back on April 17, 1961 at the Bay of Pigs, in Cuba.
