Hard-to-find large-format road atlas imported directly from Brazil. Approximately 11x16 inches, with full-color road maps of each Brazilian state on each two-page spread. Larger states are presented on several spreads so that the level of detail is preserved. Each map has a distance table in kilometers for trip planning. Shows numbers of main highways and roads and indicates many distances between cities directly on the map. For each state, insets of important commercial or recreational areas or regions are provided. Page numbers for contiguous maps are elegantly marked on each spread. Shows dangerous stretches and locates filling stations. Full index of place names. Scale varies widely from 1:900,000 to 1:2,000,000. Additional maps of greater Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Brasilia & the federal district (with street indexes) and their surrounding areas. Special section describes 10 national parks in detail, with phone numbers and recommendation ratings. Doubles as a road atlas of southern South America (the Mercosul region), with major highways of Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina and Chile in the back of the book. In Portuguese.

Kind of wacky!,

This review is from: Brazil Road Atlas 'Atlas Rodoviario' by Quatro Rodas of Brazil (Large Format) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
While this is one of just a few maps that contain comprehensive information for Brazil, the way it's organized is extremely frustrating. It is not like maps for the US where page numbers make sense and mileage to/from locations is comprehensive. In this map book you have to calculate what you can from locations "within" each state, then guestimate what the mileage might be into a town in another state to connect with the mileage chart provided there. I admit it's better than nothing, but don't expect American quality!
