This review is from: Fodor's Flashmaps Boston, 3rd Edition: The Ultimate Map Guide (Paperback)

This book is a great size and very handy to carry in a bookbag or large pocket. The maps are easy to read and have the right info. However, the area covered is much smaller than I expected. I frequently find that the location I'm looking for is "off the map," especially for places that are in the Boston Metro Area, but not in Boston proper. The Cambridge map, for example, only covers about half of the city.
