The thirteenth volume of Walt’s People: Talking Disney with the Artists Who Knew Him has been released. I own at least half of the volumes, and while the length and quality of the interviews varies widely, Disney researchers, historians and fans will discover worthwhile nuggets in each and every edition. The latest volume, edited as always by Disney historian Didier Ghez, is nearly 600 pages and includes material from a who’s who of Disney historians including John Canemaker, Jim Korkis, John Culhane, Michael Barrier, and the late Robin Allan.
