• A 3 miles to the inch road atlas of Great Britain just published by the AA will be of particular interest to traffic offices and dispatch personnel: not only is this an extremely clear set of road maps to a particularly useful scale for transport work, but there are separate route planning maps for northern and southern England and for Scotland, and 85 large-scale town plans.
The 305-page atlas also has a gazetteer which lists every one of the 50,000 towns, villages and hamlets shown on the maps.
The book measures 12in. x 84in,. and costs £4.95 to AA members or £5.95 to non-members; it is obtainable from AA offices or from the Automobile Association. PO Box 52, Basingstoke, Hants RG2I 1BN.
As well as road, route and town maps the book contains mileage charts, a metric conversion table and some emergency services information. B.C.
