Two little freebies for your Kindle. Both books are part of the hourly history series which means they will take you about an hour to read so one could say it is a bit of a beginner's biography. Good enough to get a few interesting facts and a little bit of insight into the lives of these two figures of history. Reviews for both books are pretty good.
Note: These books are free at time of posting: read the page and do NOT use 1 click to buy in case the free offers expire and you purchase the books by accident.

    Spoiler Alert: he's a racist

    • justtoreply on 17/04/2021 - 14:32

      And a prick of a slavemongering boss
      And sexist
      And probably a lot of other things.

      A truly awful person. Walt Hitler?

      I wonder how honest this book is..

        yes I did read some controversial things about Disney

        You can’t judge historical people by modern standards.

        For example, if you have a dog now in 100 years you may be regarded no better than an 1850 Southern US plantation slave owner. Worse if you eat meat.

        The mind boggles to think where the current trans rights movement will go just in the next 20 years.

          I wonder what people will think of abortion in a 100 years.

          Oof love this age-old argument of defending and trying to relieve a famous white man from his racism, slavery and bigotry.

          • Grok on 17/04/2021 - 21:29

            @UrbanLegend: Better than many people defending the living black man Louis Farrakhan who is far worse …… today.

              @Grok: Ah yes, you pulled out a reference to an obscure man I had to look up on Google and it rhymes along with "black" and "Islam" - your defence against Walt Disney's alleged racism and slavery. Nicely done.

        • justtoreply on 17/04/2021 - 18:48

          Slavery was also abolished long before..

      Someone born in 1901 is racist, no way.

        Similar thing they said about Dawn Fraser and gay community

        Edit - Margaret Court

          Isn't it basic common sense, people from a time when racism was considered normal and correct, were racist. Same with any other time period and thing that was prevalent in that period.

          Court is also religious, religions generally have a dislike for homosexuality.

    • LFO on 18/04/2021 - 15:05

      Spoiler Alert: he's a racist

      What about her?

      Was she a racist, elitist, supremacist as well?

      Keen to know.

    • JTiger on 18/04/2021 - 19:22

      Spoiler alert most people are actually racist

      was he a playboy

      • htc on 17/04/2021 - 15:23

        All I remembered is he had a humble beginning and some cartoon became a hit.

    Title is incorrect. Currently in cryo. Life end deferred 😂

      Walt Disney was cremated two days after his death and an urn containing his ashes were interred at the family mausoleum in the Forrest Lawn Cemetery of Glendale, California. It was a small, private service attended only by his wife, Lillian, his daughters and their husbands and children. — How a strange rumor of Walt Disney’s death became legend

        Futurama says otherwise!

    Have you watched 'Saving Mr. Banks' with Tom Hanks. What a brilliant movie about the making of Mary Poppins

  • Jumpingmanjim on 17/04/2021 - 23:51

    I guess you could say Marie Antoinette's life was …. cut short

    • dan2k on 18/04/2021 - 19:06

      Is that …. where you paused and removed your glasses? Good old CSI Miami..
