 A complete disappointment October 17, 2007

Apparently Universal Atlas no longer publishes a Michigan County Atlas. When I needed to replace my old Michigan County Atlas, I was surprised to find this atlas is divided into arbitrary grids. For example, if one wants to drive M22 from Frankfurt up to the tip of Lelanau peninsula, you have to flip through three disparate grids, located throughout the book, one of which has the bare tip of the Lelanau peninsula along with the Elk Rapids area on the other side of Grand Traverse Bay. As well, the maps are funky in general as they are cut up to show 1 mile sections, township boundaries, township ranges, zip codes and tons of other useless information, making it difficult to follow roads and natural features like rivers and streams.
Most likely someone at Universal Map thought they were making a better product. But it is difficult to imagine that anyone who actually used maps would think this arbitrary grid format and the incomprehensibility of these maps was any kind of improvement. As it is, this atlas is a waste of paper and I am very sorry I purchased it.
