Select entries from journals kept by key members of the Tarzan creative team - including musician Phil Collins, directors Kevin Lima and Chris Buck, and legendary animator Glen Keane - illuminate the struggles, the triumphs, and ultimately the joy that marked the four-year journey from idea to finished film. Discover why the often-tackled story of Tarzan was so intriguing to the Disney filmmakers and how they decided to focus on the thematic question "What constitutes a family?" Read first-hand accounts of how the filmmakers created a Tarzan unlike any other. More than 500 pieces of artwork - ranging from concept sketches and storyboards to animation and production stills - enhance vivid, personal recollections and an inspired text that will delight readers in search of insider information about how this magnificent film came to life.
