Disneyland Detective: An Independent Guide to Discovering Disney's Legend, Lore, & Magic.

Rating:
Summary: lots of great information, but poorly written
Review: I'm very torn about this book. On one hand, it's full of fascinating trivia and historical details, including locations and descriptions of hidden Mickeys in the park (a subject not well covered by any other printed Disneyland guide), and since it's a trade paperback, it would be easy to carry into the park for reading in lines. On the other hand, it's poorly written and terribly copy-edited: misspellings, sentence fragments, misused words, incorrect punctuation.

On the basis of the contents of the book, I would have given it 4 stars, but the copy editing is so bad that I had to downgrade it to 3. I hope that if there's a second edition, the publisher will fix some of the many errors. On the whole, though, I'd recommend this book as a worthwhile addition to a Disneyland book
collection.
