4.0 out of 5 stars
The best atlas, but has room for improvement,
By Dave Tarwheel (Durham, NC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: North Carolina Atlas & Gazetteer (State Atlas & Gazetteer) (Paperback)
I own several of the DeLorme state atlases. They are great resources for the planning of non-motorized touring (biking, hiking).Strengths include: (1) Physical land features: topographic contours, water resources, vegetation, etc. (2) Off-road options: trails, abandoned railroads, ferries. (3) Recreation: Parks, outdoor sports, points of interest. DeLorme's atlases have two shortcomings: (1) Road naming is too creative. Many of the printed names bear no relation to actual road signs. (2) There's no indication of whether a road is paved, gravel, dirt or sand--every road is shown by a thin, red line. Consult "The Roads of North Carolina" for pavement info. All in all, a "must" for the do-it-yourself traveler.
