About this title

From School Library Journal:

This title provides a limited sampling of the beautiful maps in the more comprehensive National Geographic Atlas of the World. The Concise Atlas is printed on the same heavy paper stock and at the same size as the larger atlas, but in a paperback binding. While this seems a remarkable bargain at first, the atlas's binding makes it difficult to see map details that run across page gutters. It also raises questions of how well a large-format, softcover book can stand up to reference use. This title is worth considering if you want to supplement your collection with a few large maps but can't afford one of the large atlases. But it's not a good choice for reference use.
