Oregon Atlas and Gazetteer (Oregon Atlas & Gazetteer)
- Book Review,
by Delorme, Delorme Mapping Company (Corporate Author)
From Book News, Inc.
The 16th of DeLorme's great and ingenious state atlases. They've begun with USGS topographic maps, reduced these from ca. 1 inch: 1 mile to about 1 inch: 2.4 miles, retaining the forest overlay, roads, trails, cultural feature. DeLorme has added boat ramps, fish species in selected waters, activities at various sites (camping, swimming, biking). 11x15<1;/2>". The main fault is the lack of a 20x14" map of the full state (the index map is a small 10"x7". A magnificent project we'll watch with delight and impatience (when Colo?, when Wyo?).
