 The only bad thing about coffee table books is that you can't read them on the go - you just can't lug a heavy book to lunch, and even worse, you can't read them on the potty. So, you have to make time to give them your full attention - I finally managed to devote some time to this fantastic book, which was a wonderful Christmas gift from my parents. Disney's Nine Old Men is a beautiful book, filled with fascinating facts and excellent images. Each chapter focuses on one of the famous animators, including a biographical section, discussions of famous scenes they were responsible for, and anecdotes about their time at the Disney studio. I learned so much from reading this book - it was incredible to think about these men, with such different personalities often in conflict, and how they managed to create such cohesive and beautiful works of art that are the Disney animated features. This book is an absolute must for any fan of animation history!
