Nice collection Friar. I've been looking for the architecture books, but I can't find a decent price anywhere. What do you think of the Pirates and Mansion books?

I like both of the books. I have the first editions, but I know there are later editions of each with more information, mostly on the newer movies. It is the parts about the attractions that give decent insight into the development of both attractions. Both books are very similar to the Disney Mountain book.

Sounds good to me. I've been wary of purchasing because I didn't know what kind of insight it gave into the attractions. Thanks!
