0Almost everything you know about Mickey Mouse is wrong: he wasn't Disney's first star; Steamboat Willie wasn't his first movie; Mickey wasn't a nice guy--and Walt Disney didn't invent him.

In 1928, two very different best friends invented Mickey Mouse. And the success tore them apart. Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks's friendship is a story of betrayal, love, war, money, power, tragedy, intrigue, humor, despair, and hope. You'll love them both--when you don't want to drop anvils on their heads. Discover the men behind the mouse, and the mystery behind the magic.

A Mouse Divided is a stirring depiction of two underdogs. One invented Mickey Mouse--and one said he did. You'll love Walt Disney more than you ever thought possible--until you don't. And you'll sympathize with Walt's friend-turned-rival Ub Iwerks, always in Walt's shadow.

This true story of how the Disney empire was made is a captivating page-turner, endlessly fascinating and revealing. And it's never been fully told--until now.
