The Disneyland Book of Lists offers a new way to explore over sixty years of Disneyland history. Nearly 250 fascinating lists feature everything from the park's famous attractions, shops, restaurants, parades, and live shows to the creative artists, designers, characters, and performers that have made Disneyland the world's most beloved theme park.
Inside the pages of this fun- and fact-filled book you will find:
In addition to lists created by author Chris Strodder (The Disneyland Encyclopedia), The Disneyland Book of Lists includes lists written exclusively for this book by celebrities, Disney Legends, Disneyland experts and historians, and former performers in "The Happiest Place on Earth." Over 175 vintage and contemporary photographs illustrate the lists.
People have been making lists for centuries (think the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, compiled 2,100 years ago), and to this day various top tens, hit parades, and bucket lists chronicle every aspect of our lives. But until now, no book has used lists to categorize and celebrate all the diverse elements in Disneyland. Fun, fascinating, factual, and sixty years in the making, The Disneyland Book of Lists is the only Disneyland book of its kind.
