The result of of more than a decade of meticulous research, Before the Birds Sang Words is a scholarly, fascinating and playful deep dive into the creation of Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room, the timeless Audio-Animatronic musical revue that’s been delighting Disneyland audiences for over sixty years. Detailing not only the genesis and evolution of the revolutionary attraction, this is a story that also explores the contributing influences and passions of the man who spearheaded it—in turn becoming one of Walt Disney’s most personal projects. Full of set backs and surprises, the tale of the Tiki Room began long before an army of marauding pirates, grinning ghosts or singing dolls set up shop at Disneyland. In fact, the seeds for the world’s most famous tropical hideaway were planted well before Disneyland, before Mickey Mouse, before even Walt himself. With a foreword by writer-director Brad Bird, Before the Birds Sang Words is quite the story. For those ready to take the flight—you lucky people, you! "Masterful in its execution, and likely the best written work on the development of a theme park attraction ever attempted." "Run, don’t walk to pick this one up," writes Imagineer and historian Christopher Merritt. "Applause! Applause! This truly is THE book I've waited my entire life to read," adds Disney Parks Collectibles designer Kevin Kidney. "It's such an enlightening read. I cannot recommend it highly enough."

Walt Disney left behind big dreams when he died in 1966. Perhaps none was greater than the hope that his son-in-law, Ron Miller, would someday run his studio. Under Miller’s leadership, Disney expanded into new frontiers: global theme parks, computer animation, cable television, home video, and video games. Despite these innovations, Ron struggled to expand the Disney brand beyond its midcentury image of wholesome family entertainment, even as times and tastes evolved.

Over the fifty years that Lorne Michaels has been at the helm of Saturday Night Live, he has become a revered and inimitable presence in the entertainment world. He’s a tastemaker, a mogul, a withholding father figure, a genius spotter of talent, a shrewd businessman, a name-dropper, a raconteur, the inspiration for Dr. Evil, the winner of more than a hundred Emmys—and, essentially, a mystery. Generations of writers and performers have spent their lives trying to figure him out, by turns demonizing and lionizing him.
