All in all, this is the best and most useful geography bee study guide I've seen (and I've seen most). Highly recommended for anyone getting prepared for a geography bee.
The main drawback of this book is that it was published in 2001. Although the world has not changed completely, but it has to some extent as far as the Geography Bee is concerned. The problem with this book is that it does not have an updated version not does it have a companion online presence that updated the more recent facts. With this additions, this book will be really helpful for all aspirants for the NGBC.
