Any unusual DL guide books out there?

I was on Amazon looking for Disney gift cards, (none there, but some for restaurants on DTD) and found 2 books about WDW that were not your run of the mill guidebooks. Both sounded interesting and people on the World part of DIS have been mentioning them. They are
The Dark Side of Disney
and
102 Ways to Save Money For and At Walt Disney World: Bonus! 40 Free Things to Enjoy, Eat, Do and Collect!

Has anyone found similar books written about the California parks?

It seems like a lot more is written about WDW than DLR. As far as Disneyland-specific books that aren't run-of-the-mill guidebooks, I have:

--The Hidden Mickey book (don't have the name in front of me, it's in my suitcase)
--Disney War (about the rise and fall [kind of] of Michael Eisner, who was in charge of Disney during the 80s and 90s)
--The Disneyland Encyclopedia (more of a reference of sorts of important people/places/ride histories, etc., harder to read as a book, I go to it when I have a question about someone geeking-out over a name on here [like Bob Gurr!])

I'm a big fan of the "Seen, Un-Seen Disneyland" books. The second book is coming out on July 17th, I pre-ordered it and it's pretty great!

I have The Imagineering Field Guide to Disneyland and I think it is pretty interesting. There is one for DCA as well. It is a handy little guide that talks about the parks from the perspective of an Imagineer, and how things were designed.
