3.0 out of 5 stars
A nice book, but road accuracy questionable,
By A Customer
This review is from: Nevada Atlas & Gazetteer (Paperback)
I used the Nevada Atlas & Gazetteer on a trip this summer, and mostly it was useful. However, we ran into a number of places where a road indicated as an "other state route or major connector" either required 4WD to pass, or was blocked by a locked gate. In my book, state routes and major connectors can be used by the general public, and probably in a passenger car - even in Nevada.However, the topographical representations are nice, and it was a good reference to have. I just quit trusting it after a day or so.

Great price and in perfect condition on arrival. We have friends who live in Nevada and I wanted some detailed maps of the desert in southern Nevada. Having owned Gazeteers from other states I purchased this one. Not disappointed. Excellent maps, good detail, good physical construction for use on the road or just for the coffee table.

Beautiful looking, detailed map-book.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Nevada Atlas & Gazetteer (Paperback)
DeLorme is the leader in large-scale map-books, but I was always slightly dissatisfied with their depiction of topography. With the Nevada Atlas, they have finally achieved a visual appeal to match the level of detail they have always provided. Traditional relief lines are enhanced by subtle, three-dimensional shading, so that one seems to be looking at an aerial view of the state. They have also refined rivers, lakes, roads, and other surface features to be more detailed and accurate. A welcome improvement!

Doesn't differentiate between paved and unpaved!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Nevada Atlas & Gazetteer (Paperback)
I was disappointed with the Delorme Atlas. In trying to get from Las Vegas to Death Valley, I had to turn back twice when I encounted rough gravel roads. I finally gave up on Delorme and went back to my AAA map. I didn't want to take the unpaved roads because I was driving my mother's car, but even if I were driving a rented 4WD, I'd still want a map to show me if a road were paved or not.
