Eastern Canada in a series of three indexed, waterproof and tear-resistant road maps of the country with topographic and tourist information. The maps, published by Reise Know-How as part of their highly acclaimed World Mapping Project, are double-sided to provide the best balance between a good scale and a convenient size sheet.

The area is divided east/west, with a good overlap between the two sides. Coverage on the eastern side extends beyond 60º north to include the whole of Labrador province. The western side extends beyond 56º north and includes Belcher Islands in the Hudson Bay, with coverage of Ontario extending to approx. 87º west. In USA Boston and Cape Cod are included.

The map has altitude colouring with spot heights and plenty of names of rivers and lakes. Numerous national and provincial parks and other protected areas are highlighted, as well as Indian reservation areas. Road network includes selected minor roads and tracks, with intermediate distances given on main routes. Railway lines, local airfields and ferry connections are also shown. Symbols mark locations of various places of interest including natural sites and UNESCO World Heritage areas, etc. The map has a grid with latitude and longitude at intervals of 2º, plus an index of localities. Map legend includes English.

”World Mapping Project” is an extensive series of maps at varying scales, aiming to provide coverage of countries and regions worldwide using clear, well presented cartography with both topographic and tourist information. Some titles in this series have been published in Britain by Rough Guides with the same original cartography and are listed on our website only under that imprint. However, if required, the original Reise Know-How editions can be ordered on request - please contact us by e-mail.

Sample of cartography:
Some elements of the cartography e.g. minor roads and contours are printed relatively faintly compared with other information such as major roads. Although clearly legible on the map, the lower contrast of these details has made them less obvious on the reproduction of the cartography presented here.
