GPS, is not good for seeing the bigger picture.
I like being able to have a full sized map to use when planning our road trips. This one is nice quality, great maps with lots of detail and very easy to use.
It's a nice Atlas of the US but the print is so small it's almost impossible to read without a magnifying glass. I need to travel across the US but I wish they had a much bigger version. I gave it 3 stars because it is a real nice Atlas but minus 2 stars because it's so hard to read #4 font size.
We drove from LA to Birmingham, AL, and used this to map out our stops along the way. Works better than a GPS map because it allows you to see the route in more detail. Well worth $10
This atlas replaces our old atlas that was outdated and falling apart. When travelling, we like the handiness of having an atlas for referencing. The maps are easy to read, and anything smaller would require very good eyesight or a magnifying glass.
I grew up using folding maps and atlas's for travel, then eagerly migrated to GPS maps and digital devices. Routing with GPS cannot be beat for convenience and speed in setup. Yet on my long trips I often found myself wishing I had a large paper map to lay out and view. Looking for alternative routes and areas of interest becomes onerous on a small cell phone screen. While traveling the cell maps show just a tiny section of the route and you have to manually manipulate to see the larger picture, and even then the screen is so small that seeing details is impossible. I turned then to this Atlas to keep in my vehicles while making long trips. One of the inviting features of this particular Atlas that was appealing is the Scenic Drives section with maps by State and featured drives offering suggestions and greater detail for trips. This is very nice indeed and I've found it useful in coming up with ideas for pleasure trips, and even to enhance business travel. The cost is very low when compared to useful printed manuals and reference materials making this not only a no-brainer but really a "must have" purchase. I pulled a star only because the page size is really too small for the maps presented. It would be much more useful to print individual maps across two pages of this size to present the best detail. While the desired information is usually present, it is so small that you need reading glasses or a magnifying lens to see easily. Otherwise, this fulfills the mission, and the size does make it easier to store and carry. Overall, I'm very happy with the Atlas, and particularly at this price point.
It’s a little small
We bought a combination of "Atlases" for a 3 month road trip. Combination worked well but not always convenient as some had better identified towns than others. We had fantastic trip by using the combination. Thanks!!
