1st printing. By Garry Apgar. Since his modest debut in 1928, Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse has evolved into arguably the world's most recognized and beloved fictional figure. MICKEY MOUSE: EMBLEM OF AMERICAN SPIRIT is the illustrated biography of a unique cartoon character, his life and times, and his impact and influence around the world in art and literature. Part art history and part cultural study, Apgar's Mickey Mouse narrates how the character was initially developed by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks, how his irrepressible spirit grew to huge popularity during the Depression, and how he became a politically charged cultural icon of international reach. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 10-in., 336 pages, PC/PB&W. All Ages Cover price $40.00.
