This mini edition has been planned to provide balanced coverage of every part of the world in a series of reference maps, specially designed and created for this format to show detailed information at a small scale. The index to over 20,000 place names illustrates the scope of the atlas. The atlas includes over 100 pages of reference maps showing cities and towns, roads and railways; world and continent maps clearly locating every country in the world and providing information on landscape, climate and population; and data for each country including area, population, capital city and currency.
