Unquestionably the best map
book in its price range is the brand new 2006
road atlas produced by American Map. It's
spiral bound, printed on good quality paper,
and it's a great size for reading while on
the road. The atlas has maps of all fifty
US states, ten Canadian provinces, and includes
detailed maps for 326 cities. This atlas also
has the best maps we have seen for Mexico
and Canada in this price range. Two more features
that we really like are the mileage and driving
times map that covers the entire region between
central Canada and central Mexico, and the
temperature, distance and volume conversion
tables on the inside rear cover. The state
maps are chock full of useful, easy-to-see-at-a-glance
information for locating places in adjoining
states. For road trip planning purposes, the
National Parks locator and the suggested drives
section is excellent. This atlas is superior
to products that cost twice as much.
