I pondered at length over which UK road atlas I should get. Some were physically too large, eg 39x29cm, others did not have sufficient detail. Plus I wanted National Grid Reference (NGR) information which Amazon were a little coy in advising on any of their atlases. With this particular one they were even unable to describe the actual format. They do have a larger paper back version and a spiral bound version, both of which were clearly described as such, but this one was simply described as a road atlas! The only additional information was that it had more pages and was physically smaller than the others, A4 size. I took a chance and am happy to report that is is identical to the other formats (with the same level of detail) except that it has smaller pages but the same scale. It shows many of the obscure roads in the most remote places. It also has NGR information, both letters and 100Km squares. It is not hard back as I had hoped, but it is reinforced (sticky back plastic) paperback. All in all, I am very pleased with my acquisition. Postscipt - I notice Amazon have also tagged my review onto the Spiralbound A4 version, which I am sure is equally excellent, but this review applies to the paperback version.
