In partnership with a consortium of European cartographers, "Rough Guides" presents a series of country and regional maps. Since its inception in 2001, the "World Mapping Project" has taken as its task "the last great adventure in cartography...to map every country with state-of-the-art technology". As with the city map series, the country and regional maps are printed on waterproof and "rip-proof" polyart paper. They offer a combination of practicality, clarity of design and value.
