 Going somewhere? June 27, 2008
I had borrowed this book and knew I wanted to buy it for myself. It is very detailed and for a directionally challenged person like me that is priceless.

These state gazetteers make traveling the back roads a pleasure, and is a great value from Amazon.
 Not as up-to-date nor user-friendly August 2, 2005

We got the atlas for an 11-day trip to Minnesota, and ended up hardly using it at all.
I've used many road atlases, as I prefer them to folding maps, but this one was more of a nuisance due to its size and unclarity.
I also doubt its up-to-date-ness, as a couple of roads that looked promising in this atlas turned out to be non-existing or dislocated.
To me, the most undesirable trait was the fact that it was quite unfriendly - graphically-speaking.
Some main roads (and even freeways) were represented similarly to smaller roads (color and width), which required really exerting our eyes in order to figure out which is what.
We drove ~2500 miles in Minnesota, and after a couple of attempts, the atlas ended up on the back-seat, and we switched to the AAA map we had with us, luckily.
Disappointing.

I join the other reviewers in wishing there were more detailed city street maps in this series. As others have said if you are traveling from one city to another by major roads then you are better off with mapquest directions (as dodgy as they sometimes are) or the foldout highway map you can buy at a gas station. However, if you travel back roads, camp, fish, hike, canoe, etc., then this book is invaluable. I have relied on this book to provide us with out of the way camping spots and it's never let me down. Most state and national forest campgrounds don't appear on highway maps, but this book has them. It's also especially useful if you want to find alternative routes, scenic drives, or short cuts off of major highways.
 Out-of-date Information July 26, 2003
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I know that others have given high praise but I found the information to be very out of date, such as a bike trail that has been paved for over 10 years listed as crushed rock and a museum showing in the location it was over ten years ago. This 3rd edition has a 2001 copyright and I expect information to be fairly up-to-date. This was a very disappointing purchase. I am not using it because I doubt the reliability. It looks nice but is not a good reference for my needs.
