4.0 out of 5 stars Best I've found for BASIC student info...., November 6, 2000

By	kb6 "kb6" (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Rand McNally Quick Reference World Atlas (World Atlas / Quick Reference) (Paperback)

As a public librarian I deal often with students, K-12, who are looking for basic simple maps to draw and otherwise use for reports. This book is the simplest and most straight forward that I've found. There is a 2 page spread of the continental United States that has been copied more times than I can count. Great for what it is--four stars to draw attention to the fact that it is NOT a comprehensive resource, but instead, as the title states, it is a terrific "quick reference".

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect basic reference, February 22, 2000

By	Sharon Silverman (Davenport IA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Quick Reference World Atlas (Paperback)

I looked at many small world map books before deciding on this one and I'm thrilled. I keep it at my desk to refresh my memory when reading history books, or listening to news on the radio. There are larger maps to give a good overview, then "zoomed" pages to give a closer look at a particular area. Obviously a book this size will not contain detailed maps of a small country. If you are seeking that kind of information you need a larger atlas.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great maps of the U.S., November 21, 2000

By	Chris Steinmetz (Indianapolis, IN USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Rand McNally Quick Reference World Atlas (World Atlas / Quick Reference) (Paperback)

This reference not only has an excellent 2 page spread of the continental United States but also has expanded detail of the eastern, central, and western states. The rest of the world maps are good but not as crisply done as in Merriam Webster's Notebook Atlas, a good companion to this volume. Both are great bargains.

4.0 out of 5 stars What I Needed
This is just what I needed for a course I'm teaching. Lots of information in a compact form. Sometimes too compact, I need a magnifying glass for some maps, but it does the job.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not quite enough detail-but considering size it's great
This 8 1/2" by 11" thin paperback is a handy reference when it comes to countries and major citie-not quite enough detail for one individual country.
