  Mouse Tracks: The Story of Walt Disney Records chronicles for the first time the fifty-year history of the Disney recording companies launched by Walt Disney and Roy Disney in the mid-1950s, when Disneyland Park, Davy Crockett, and the Mickey Mouse Club were taking the world by storm. The book provides a perspective on all-time Disney favorites and features anecdotes, reminiscences, and biographies of the artists who brought Disney magic to audio. 
   
   
   
  Authors Tim Hollis and Greg Ehrbar go behind the scenes at the Walt Disney Studios and discover that in the early days Walt Disney and Roy Disney resisted going into the record business before the success of "The Ballad of Davy Crockett" ignited the in-house label. Along the way, the book traces the recording adventures of such Disney favorites as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Cinderella, Bambi, Jiminy Cricket, Winnie the Pooh, and even Walt Disney himself. Mouse Tracks reveals the struggles, major successes, and occasional misfires. Included are impressions and details of teen-pop princesses Annette Funicello and Hayley Mills, the Mary Poppins phenomenon, a Disney-style "British Invasion," and a low period when sagging sales forced Walt Disney to suggest closing the division down. 
   
   
   
  Mouse Tracks is a collector's bonanza of information on this little-analyzed side of the Disney empire.

  The Art of Rome - Masterpieces...

  The art of ancient Rome was shaped by a blend of cultural influences, evolving through a combination of native traditions and foreign influences, most notably from the Etruscans and Greeks. Early Roman art was heavily influenced by the Etruscans, who occupied central Italy before the rise of Rome. Etruscan art was characterized by its religious themes, vibrant frescoes, and elaborate tomb paintings, which had a significant impact on the early Roman artistic style. These early Roman artists often adopted Etruscan methods but began incorporating their own innovations, creating a distinctive blend of the two cultures. 
  Greek art also played a crucial role in the development of Roman art. As Rome expanded and conquered Greece, it absorbed many aspects of Greek culture, including their artistic styles. Greek sculptural ideals of beauty, proportion, and harmony were emulated by Roman artists. However, while Greek art favored idealized forms and perfection, Roman art took a more realistic approach, focusing on depicting individuals as they truly appeared. Roman portraiture, for example, was known for its attention to detail, capturing the wrinkles, facial expressions, and other characteristics that defined a person’s likeness. This move toward realism was a major shift from the idealized forms of Greek art, and it became a hallmark of Roman artistry. 
  In the early stages of Roman art, the primary medium was sculpture, often used to commemorate important figures or events. The Romans developed a talent for creating lifelike statues and busts, which were displayed in homes and public spaces to honor ancestors and gods. These sculptures, often made from marble or bronze, served as a means of preserving the memory of individuals or celebrating military victories.
