Recommended Road Map
I have just returned from a tour of southern Ireland and I used this atlas with no problems at all. It has a full page map of Ireland inside the front cover and then four pages to show more detailed areas before the pages detailing final 3.2 inches to the mile maps. On the inside of the rear cover are distances between major towns in both kilometres and miles and a full index of town. Local attractions are marked and described and there are street plans of a number of the major towns and cities.
Great value!
The best road atlas of Ireland
This is the best road atlas of Ireland available.
The main road atlas pages are at a reasonable scale of about three miles to the inch. The colour scheme makes them easy to read. Shading gives an indication of hilly areas. The one weakness is that the minor roads can be hard to follow in the areas where they are most tightly packed like west cork. But that is due to the limitations of the scale and this atlas shows them as well as any atlas does. Information on roads is up to date with roads under construction shown. As the Republic of Ireland has a fast expanding road building program this is important.
The real bonus is to find clear, detailed, good-scale A-Z style maps of the main cities at the back of the book. These will ensure that you don't navigate the countryside successfully only to get lost when you go into town. It is well worth buying this road atlas rather than smaller or cheaper one that doesn't have these detailed town maps.
