2.0 out of 5 stars Ugly and useless, May 27, 2006

By	anonymous - See all my reviews

This map is ugly and useless! It is totally green. There is no way to distinguish one country from the next, as everything is green! The lines are all green and the land is colored green, so country borders and terrain are indistinguishable. You can't tell where Latvia ends and Lithuania begins, even if you look up close! The map is printed in an unusual foreign language, too. It's not in French, German, Spanish, or English. I'm not sure what language labels everything. Maybe it's Lithuanian. This map does show major roads in red, but who cares about that?!?

5.0 out of 5 stars Very useful, October 15, 2007

By	Dr. Doomes (Santa Fe, NM USA) - See all my reviews

The person who wrote the previous review obviously did not know what he/she was talking about. OK, the map mostly has a greenish background, but the major roads are in red, mionor roads in yellow, other roads are in white. Rail lines and waterways are shown, and major sights are printed in red. Place names are printed in the native languages as far as I can tell, which makes sense and is helpful (the highway signs, after all, are in the native language, not English). Borders and border crossings also are clearly shown. I just completed a trip to Latvia and Lithuania, and this map met my needs. If you plan to spend a lot of time driving in the countryside, however, another map with finer scale (this one is 1:700,000) for the particular area you plan to visit would be helpful to take along as well.
