Here’s how to decide which atlas is best for you:
If your eyes strain when you read small print:
Large Scale Road Atlas: This spiral-bound, updated 2025 Large Scale edition contains maps of every U.S. state, Canada, and an overview of Mexico, that are 35% larger than the standard atlas version. The atlas also includes detailed inset maps of 375 cities and 28 national parks, plus a comprehensive, unabridged index. Plus, the spiral binding allows the book to lay open easily.
If you want large print, but a more compact size:
Mid-Size Easy to Read Road Atlas :This spiral-bound midsized atlas contains updated, easy-to-read, large print maps of the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, plus detailed maps of over 50 North American cities, in a convenient travel size that fits in a glove box. The spiral, stay-flat binding allows the book to lay open easily. Because of its smaller trim size, the maps are not as detailed as the other three editions.
If you want something that’s more portable than the spiral-bound atlases and also more detailed than the Mid-Size Easy to Read Atlas:
Road Atlas: This staple-bound Road Atlas contains maps of every U.S. state and Canadian province, an overview map of Mexico, and detailed inset maps of over 375 cities and 28 national parks. It’s lighter and easier to handle when traveling than the Large Scale Road Atlas and the maps are more detailed than the Mid-Size Easy to Read Road Atlas.
