"[Stewart] weaves the creative, corporate, financial and
personality streams of the Disney Co.'s fate into one astonishingly
complete and gripping real-life drama."--Houston Chronicle
"A deliciously toxic [package] . . . a lust roll in greed and
spite. In other words, a good old-fashioned Hollywood
production."--Time
"A messy, fractious story complete with its own Seven Dwarfs:
Sneaky, Screamy, Pushy, Greedy, Grabby, Nasty and Snarky. Snow
White is nowhere to be seen."--The New York Times
"Compelling and often brilliant . . . A monumental
achievement."--The Washington Post Book World
"Stewart's story speeds ahead as smoothly as a theme park ride,
with a narrative more like a psychodrama than a business book . . .
a smooth read."--USA Today
"The fall of Michael Eisner, with its Shakespearean overtones, is a
business history, a character study, and a record of how lives are
lived at the peak of American business . . . in every way admirable
and finely written."--Orlando Sentinel
