I gave this atlas to my brother for his birthday and he was thrilled. He loved it. It's a good, complete atlas and relatively easy to get through. It should take the stress out of road travel!http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0528942018/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title
The Best Road Atlas August 4, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Rand McNally is still the best national road atlas on the market. It does the best job combining detail with readability. The maps of cities and national parks are very good, and the state maps are the best in the business--points of interest, such as colleges and major tourist attractions, are noted. For each state, there is a listing of population and land area (and where the state ranks based on those figures). There is also a mileage table for each state as well as a national mileage table. This is the atlas to take on long trips.

An excellent atlas. It even shows places where extensive road work is happening. We are very happy with it.
 Great Atlas - Lousy Update May 28, 2008
11 out of 11 found this review helpful
I have been collecting/using Rand McNally road atlases since the early '90s. They are consistently great atlases from year to year. Normally, I find the next year's atlas available in September, so I was very surprised to see the 2009 version available in May, 2008. When comparing the 2008 version to the 2009 version, it is clear that the 2009 version was released earlier than usual. There are very few updates that I noticed from one version to the next. Usually I can spot some updates from a mile away, so to speak. This time, I had to get both the 2008 and 2009 versions out and compare them side to side to notice any updates. The updates that were included, that I was finally able to find, were relatively minor, such as some construction areas that are completed, or vice-versa. One semi-major update that I found was a note in the St. Louis city-map stating that I-64 was closed.
All in all, this is a great atlas. However, if you have the 2008 version and are not an avid collector, this is probably a skippable release. I never thought I would say that about a Rand McNally atlas...
