5.0 out of 5 stars I say, can you direct me to Bleeding Heart Yard?, 23 Dec 2002

By	Joseph Haschka (Glendale, CA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

I'm a map junkie, especially national highway and city street maps. Perhaps it's the lure of the open road and exotic places. In any case, I recently acquired the LONDON A-Z street atlas, and I'm in seventh heaven. London, you see, is my favorite city in the whole world.

The atlas covers the city center plus outlying suburbs from Romford and Sidcup in the east to Ruislip and Shepperton in the west, and Barnet and Enfield in the north to Sutton and Croyden in the south. Claiming to index over 69,000 streets, each of its 170 color map pages is, well, busy. Since the atlas is only 7.5 by 5 inches, the street names are printed small and require either the good vision of youth or the spectacles of old age. And a magnifying glass helps.

There are several other useful features: a single page map each for the West End cinemas and theatres, a map-referenced listing of hospitals and hospices, a map-referenced listing of all rail, Tramlink and Underground stations, a schematic of Greater London's rail connecting points with the Underground, and the world famous color schematic of the latter. This is good stuff.

Of course, there are symbols on each map for the usual clutter of police stations, post offices, information centers, fire stations, churches and chapels, shopping centres and markets, public buildings, toilets for the disabled, tracks and footpaths, etc.

My only complaint concerns those maps other than the large-scale ones of Central London. On the former, the rail and Underground stations, those beacons of solidity in an uncertain world, aren't as immediately obvious as one might like. They're much better indicated on the Central London plans.

Oh, and Bleeding Heart Yard? Why, it's right there on page 161 in map square 6K. Can't miss it, guv.

5.0 out of 5 stars The clearest London street atlas, 1 Feb 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: A to Z Street Atlas of London (Paperback)

I have been using the London A-Z since I started driving in 1987. It has a complete index of London streets with page number and grid location. I don't know of any clearer London street maps. If you are driving in London, I strongly recommend this book, even if you only drive into London once! If you are just visiting London and will spend most of the time using public transport or as a pedestrian, the 'London Central Area A-Z' is smaller and easily fits in the inside-jacket pocket.
