If you are planning on cruising with a different cruise line then you are probably better off with a more general cruise book like 'Caribbean by Cruise Ship: The Complete Guide to Cruising the Caribbean'.

Birnbaum's Disney Cruise Line gives a good overview at a reasonable price for the cruise novice but doesn't offer a lot of information for seasoned Disney cruise passengers

The book is split into four basic chapters, the first chapter, Before You Sail, covers everything you need to know about the Disney Cruise Line including planning tips, how to select the right cruise package, details of the different levels of accommodation and a complete breakdown of each itinerary with sailing maps and arrival/departure times.

The second chapter, All Aboard, gives you a stem-to-stern' tour of the two Disney ships, the Disney Magic and Disney Wonder so that by the time you board the ship, you will know your way around. It also includes dining tips from breakfast with Mickey to gourmet dining, kids activities for all age groups, evening entertainment options and different ways to celebrate special occasions like birthdays and weddings.
