Summary: Should be titled "U.S. and World Atlas"
Review: I was searching for a real "world" atlas and wound up with an Atlas that devotes half its' pages to maps of each U.S. state. The maps of the rest of the world are only moderately detailed, Alabama is presented with a lot more detail than Japan. I guess I'll have to spend a little more to get the real thing.

Summary: Good, Easy To Carry World Atlas
Review: This World Atlas is a solid, basic atlas, nothing too fancy, that provides quick access to maps of all the regions of the world. It features an interesting 'Introductory Section' that features interesting introductions to each of the continents that are two pages each. There are also some interesting graphs, one featuring how much of the worlds' population is in each continent, but there are only four graphs. The rest of the atlas features maps, both political and topographical. The USA covers about half of the book, leaving the other half to the rest of the world, but still done in good detail.
