5.0 out of 5 stars Clear and large scale, 16 Aug 2007
By Mr. R. B. Ager "Ronald Ager" (Nottingham, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: AA Big Easy Read France 2007 (AA Atlases) (Spiral-bound)
This is, by the faintest of margins, the largest scale road atlas of the whole of France (and Corsica) in one reasonably sized book or volume. The scale of 1:190,000 is 3 miles to 1 inch; its main competitor on the shelves, Michelin, uses the metric equivalent 1:200,000 which is 2km to 1cm.

Amazon's synopsis above details the features fully. Despite using a UK scale drivers and navigators may or may not be pleased to learn that distances marked on the pages are in kilometres.

We "road-tested" this atlas earlier this year in Northern France, and compared it later with the Michelin version. The road maps are very clear and largely uncluttered (with the obvious difficult exception of the Paris area); some of the names of the very smallest hamlets have been left off in the cause of clarity. In a few areas there was little or no map overlap at the edge of pages, and this could be confusing, although reference to the index and road-planner at the front usually provided the key.

Some of the minor road numbers were ambiguous or not correct, having probably been recently changed. However, French road signs place less emphasis on road numbers than we're used to in the UK and the rule when travelling is to look for the place name or town that you want.

The static speed camera information was reliable - in any case you get ample warning of them on the road. The large town and city plans (56 of them, a few more in the Michelin) were useful, especially when on foot; becuase of one-way and through-traffic systems their value on the road is pretty marginal.

Despite the little imperfections mentioned this is an impressive and reliable road atlas - we didn't manage to get lost once. There is little to choose between this AA atlas and its competition and it would be churlish to give it less than five.

4.0 out of 5 stars Does what it says on the tin, 9 Jun 2009
By Rorys Mum "Mel" (Northants, UK) - See all my reviews
This is easy to read and fairly useful until you go off the beaten track (as we did in the south of france) it didn;t have all the roads on it. It was lucky we bought it as a back up for sat nav. Given it 4 stars though cos overall good.

4.0 out of 5 stars Big read, 18 Jun 2009
By K. Jackson (Herts. UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Very detailed map, used it to drive all the way through France to get to Spain and back to good effect. Ringbinding is great for turning pages but hard if the area you want is on the fold as there's a good 2 cm from one edge to the other.
This book is quite big compared to other map books, which is great for detail but makes it a little hard to store and takes up a lot of space on the navigators lap...

This book really is the business. The maps are very clear, detailed and well laid out and the fact that its spiral bound makes it that much easier to use.
