A thing of beauty

This map book is just beautiful. I live in the U.S. and have never been to Australia, so I can't comment on the accuracy of the maps or the information, or the choice of what 25 routes to include. But I am just beginning the planning of a possible future 4WD trip to Australia, and as a lifelong map nut, I just love this book. The maps are beautiful. There's just enough info on each track to get me thinking, but not enough to feel overwhelmed by information. And there are photos with each route to give you a flavor of the geography. For my purposes, it's perfect - gives me a sampling of what Australia has to offer, and allows me to begin the planning process. It's too bad neither this website nor the Hema website shows any of the interior pages of this atlas.
