Magic Quizdom: Disneylandia Minutiae Semper Absurda [Paperback]

Kevin Yee (Author), Jason Schultz (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 1, 2004

The trivia book of choice for Disneyland fanatics! Designed to appeal to both casual Disney lovers and hardcore fans, Magic Quizdom features trivia questions with three levels of difficulty, with the hardest questions left open-ended rather than multiple choice. Best of all, the answers to the trivia questions, given in their own sections, greatly expand upon the matter at hand. Paragraph-length answers provide additional details, explain the history behind the magic, and make connections between the modern-day Disneyland and its past. Disneyland is jam-packed with details of historical and cultural relevance - you just have to know where to look!

It's a book by fans, for fans - but one that remains relevant and fun even for the casual Disney observer.

5.0 out of 5 stars More than just your average trivia book! May 13, 2004

By A Customer

Format:Paperback

Kevin Yee (of the best Disney website on the Internet: Miceage.com) and Jason Schultz have put together a terrific treasure trove of little known facts and trivia about Disneyland. While Gordon and Mumford's Disneyland: The Nickle Tour is STILL the best book ever produced about the theme park, this surprisingly dense effort offers in words a perfect companion to what they provide in photographs. Together, they provide a wonderful two volume reference set about the Happiest Place on Earth. My one and only complaint is that it's, well, organized as a multiple choice trivia book, albeit with paragraph long answers that go far beyond the question asked. I feel that more could have been accomplished had it just been written as a book, and thus I found myself skipping the question sections altogether and just reading the "answer" sections because that's where the true magic of this book is. All in all, it's great. This is one of the first books about Disneyland without pictures that I absolutely couldn't put down! Purchase this at Miceage and support Kevin!
