Description
"Almost everything you know about Mickey Mouse is wrong: he wasn't Disney's first star; Steamboat Willie wasn't his first movie; Mickey wasn't a nice guy-and Walt Disney didn't invent him. In 1928, two very different best friends invented Mickey Mouse. And the success tore them apart. Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks's friendship is a story of betrayal, love, war, money, power, tragedy, intrigue, humor, despair, and hope. You&'ll love them both-when you don't want to drop anvils on their heads. Discover the men behind the mouse, and the mystery behind the magic. A Mouse Divided is a stirring depiction of two underdogs. One invented Mickey Mouse-and one said he did. You'll love Walt Disney more than you ever thought possible-until you don't. And you'll sympathize with Walt's friend-turned-rival Ub Iwerks, always in Walt's shadow. This true story of how the Disney empire was made is a captivating page-turner, endlessly fascinating and revealing. And it's never been fully told-until now."--Back cover.
