This is the only new one I know of, coming out yesterday:
The Imagineering Field Guide to Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0786855533/qid=1117730296/sr=8-1/ref=pd_csp_1/103-3207664-1254244?v=glance&s=books&n=507846
I first saw it advertised in the last issue (and apparently it is the LAST issue) of Disney Magazine. Sounds like a pretty cool addition to any visitor's library.

I'm thinking about getting this book. It was mentioned at Jim Hill's site early last month. I wanna read some reviews first, though, cause I don't want a overly-technical type book, although this doesn't seemed the case from the description I read.

I had also hoped to pick this up before this weekend's trip, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen. My new hope is that it'll be available down in the parks. I love it when the Imagineers talk! I have another book, just called, Imagineering, I think. It's got Mickey Mouse on the front, but it's pretty big, and more driven by artwork than trivia and whatnot about the attractions. Still a great book, but not nearly as portable as the new one for Magic Kingdom.

There's nothing overly-techinical about it...it's most definitely meant for the everyday MK visitor...the full-page ad in Disney Magazine shows the book open to the pages on the Pirates of the Caribbean. From those pages, I found out that, "...The name on the coat of arms hanging over the Treasure Room final scene reads Marco Daviso, an obvious reference to the great artist and character designer who lent the attraction all of its great sight gags."
Can't wait to buy the book.

Don't hold your breath - WHSmiths has a very poor selection of travel books - best UK "off the shelf" selection has got to be at Waterstonesmarni1971 said:
