(More customer reviews)DO NOT BUY THIS
When I bought this I didn't quite grasp from the other reviews just how bad the binding was or what that would mean. I figured it was bad, but it would probably start falling apart after a summer of usage. The second time I opened it pages started falling out. By the end of my vacation maybe an eighth of the pages were loose. Combine this with the fact that the the dimensions of this are too large to fit easily on anything but a table, or carry in most bags, and it becomes really awkward to use. Towards the end of the trip I just ended up ripping out the page or two I'd need for the day. They were going to fall out anyway and it was much easier to deal with a folded page than the whole book.
The listings are really annoying too. There's a push-pin icon on the map at the town that has a campground (occasionally this obscures a junction on the map). BUT you then have to flip to the back to see what was actually there. In the back you'd find the name of the campground, but not the address or phone number. So, you can't actually get to the campground using the information in the atlas, because the push-pin is on the town, not the campground's location. Campgrounds at state and national parks are totally glossed over. There *may* be an icon on the map indicating that somewhere near one end of the park there's a campground, but frequently there isn't.
I give it 2 stars because the maps were actually decent.
