Epcot is my favorite place on earth. I enjoy reading and watching all things Epcot, and this book is a good addition to my collection.

The Imagineering Field Guide to Epcot at Walt Disney World was updated in 2010, post-refurbishment. After reading, I almost wish I had purchased the older edition. While this field guide was definitely true to Epcot and all of its attractions, I wish it had included more background into each area. There is no mention of the late Wonders of Life or World of Motion Pavilions, and the reader is left mostly unaware of the previous Living Seas Pavilion and Sea Base Alpha.

I enjoyed the brief look into the World Showcase and each of its pavilions. Again, I feel that more could have been said about each of them. The Imagineering Field Guide to Epcot at Walt Disney World is a great guide if you're in search of a quick overview of the current line-up at Epcot. However, if you're interested in the history of Epcot or just an in-depth look at its attractions and evolution, there are better books out there.
