Reviews

The Washington Post says, "The map guide lets you be inconspicuous: it's as small and light as a novella, and its flip-out maps could pass as a flyer to a cool club."

"Make sure you never lose your way in a strange city. Each of the Knopf MapGuides captures its city's pith in a package as small as a passport wallet..."- Real Simple

"Knopf MapGuides are handy, practical and perfect for those of us who are slightly impaired when it comes to map-reading. You don't have to search a huge crackling sheet with a microscopic index for one of 10,000 dots on the map...The extraordinary quality of the books' beautiful hues and heavy paper also give these $8.95 guides an evocative quality that stands apart from the glossy, garish look of most travel books." - Marin Independent Journal

"A good, handy portable item for a quick trip" - San Francisco Chronicle "We love Knopf's smart new map guides." - Travel & Leisure
