PRAISE FOR DEREK HAYES'S PREVIOUS ATLASES: "A beautifully executed achievement."--Bloomsbury Review "The kind of volume that invites repeated viewings."--Seattle Times "A sure winner. . . . It's hard to imagine anyone who could resist getting happily lost on these glorious roads into our past."--Toronto Star "Derek Hayes works his way from the discovery and settlement of North America to the ever-evolving maps recording America's westward push and onward to the early maps of the automobile age."--William Grimes, New York Times"The maps show everything from how explorers conceived of the continent circa 1500 to the spread of the interstate highway system in the 1950s."--Business Week
