USER REVIEWS

A sturdy and inspiring atlas
~ Written on Oct 10, 2009. out of users found this review helpful.

I found this atlas on Amazon a few years ago and bought it for no particular reason. You really can't go wrong with anything by National Geographic, their name is synonymous with quality. The maps are beautifully drawn and provide a good amount of detail. Even though we have a GPS, you still need to pull out a map once in a while. The atlas has a nice little section with writeups on some of the most popular national parks. I actually planned my 2009 summer vacation from inspiration I got from this section. The atlas is large and softbound, but it has a sturdy plastic front and back cover so it is very durable - you can throw it around in your car and it will stay in great shape. I plan to use it again for future vacation planning, in conjunction with the new "Guide to the National Parks" by National Geographic that I just acquired - a review on that item will be forthcoming.

great for the outdoorsman

A great way to plan a road trip anywhere, focusing on National Park and camping destinations. We used it as a weekend getaway planner for short trips outside the city, then combined it w/ TOPO maps for hiking and National/State park websites to reserve and pick our camp sites. Only wish they would update it (from 2005) as there are a few road changes, etc. that we found in Washington state and the Pacific NW.

A Quality Well Done Atlas....Again

Just as good as the first edition. Most all states are in fact on two pages, so the maps are larger. This edition comes with a protective front and back page that hopefully will keep the atlas looking good and flat till the next new edition comes out. Great Product!

I have used the 1999 edition on road trips for nearly a decade. It is the first thing I pack. Beautiful, accurate, informative, and reliable, it has made the going easier through many strange cities to many remote places in North America. Although I rely more and more on Google Maps now, I still wouldn't take to the highway without this atlas, and I am glad I can replace it with a newer edition. I've never found my copy dated, but it is getting a little tattered.

This Atlas lived up to expectations and more! It is beautifully detailed and easy to read. A little large to handle but small price to pay for good detail.
