Jake S. Friedman has done an impressive job of research, to put it mildly. Without knowing the sequence of events it's impossible to understand how this bitter strike came about. Add to that the perceived insults, slights, and resentments and you have the stuff of great drama. -Leonard Maltin, film critic and historian, author of Of Mice and Magic Author Jake S. Friedman takes us on a deep dive into Hollywood history delivered in a style that reads like a film noir page turner. I could not put this book down. -Don Hahn, producer of Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King Gangsters, backroom deals, murder, and . . . cartoons? I've long been interested in the 1941 Disney strike, and Jake S. Friedman's book does not disappoint. Well written and thoroughly researched-a great read! -Pete Docter, director of Monsters Inc., Up, Inside Out, and Soul
