McGraw-Hill International Atlas

Summary

This review assesses the 1964 McGraw-Hill International Atlas. The reviewer praises its relief mapping, dense place-name coverage, and extensive gazetteer as useful for consulting geological literature, while noting awkward double-page folds and problems with name selection and transliteration. The reviewer also argues that its use of Germany’s 1937 boundaries and names, alongside predominantly German names for major geographical features, undermines its claim to be truly international.
