  • Current, accurate, with detailed geographic maps in a small compact format.
Format: Paperback
Exactly what we needed. My wife and I keep a World Atlas by the TV stand so we can look up the locations and general information about countries and places we hear of when watching the news or documentary programs. The atlas we had was getting too outdated. Though lacking a lot of individual country statistics, the maps are very detailed and informative. Very pleased with this purchase. ... show more

  • Pocket full of facts
Format: Paperback
Very handy for the size it is. There are other "statistics p"included that I don't recall finding in other atlases I've owned.

  • Buy the larger versions instead
Format: Paperback
I like the book, but it's very difficult to read due the small type. And it's difficult to see some locations if it occurs between a page spread. I understand these are difficult issues to overcome in such a small book. But that understanding doesn't make using it any easier to read or use. I recommend buying the larger versions of the book. ... show more

  • Excellent quality! Very informative
Format: Paperback
Great for travel. So much information! I may need to trim the number of pages down and mark it up a bit to bring it in my carry-on for wold travel. Great for thinking about the next trip or chatting with other travelers. Seems like it would be good for learning more about the world for students of all ages. Really good quality printing, sturdy pages. A wealth of information for map junkies. ... show more

  • Great Travel Atlas
Format: Paperback
I bought this to take with us on a trip to Europe. It is a great size and I love it's portability. Maps are clear, be it small but it has to be to be this size. We will love looking at all the places we are traveling to.

  • /a nice pocket atlas
Format: Paperback
This little book of maps seems very practical as a travel item. The maps do not have much detail, but could be useful on the road.

  • Impressed!
Format: Paperback
Bought this for my Indiana Jones obsessed nephew. I read the reviews first and saw good things, but I was really impressed on how much detail & information was inside this tiny atlas! This was absolutely a hit with my nephew, who is 7, but very very eager to learn. What an awesome tool.
