Product Description

The Devil’s Punchbowl: A Cultural & Geographical Map of CaliforniaToday is an anthology edited by Red Hen Press’s Managing Editor, KateGale, and Los Angeles Times reporter and editor Veronique de Turenne.Essays were commissioned from writers living in California, who wereasked to reflect on an aspect of the state’s geography, natural orman-made: Alcatraz Island and its prison; Manzanar and Mt. Whitney; BigSur and Joshua Tree; Los Angeles’ oil derricks and Mountain View’sGoogle headquarters; the farms of the Central Valley and the redwoods ofthe Northern Coastland. Does Alcatraz, from its important role inNative American activist history to today’s defunct prison, retainmeaning beyond a tourist attraction? How is the expanding border fencebetween Southern California and Mexico affecting, economically andpsychologically, the individuals who live near it? California’s outsizedcultural and economic impact on both our country and the rest of theworld necessitate a continual taking stock, to prevent losing ourselvesin the state’s constant transformations. The Devil’s Punchbowl captures apivotal time in our country’s history, as some of the state’s mostrecognized, complex, and accomplished writers describe theirrelationship with California’s ever-changing geographic, economic, andpsychic landscape.

Product Description
On the heels of the hugely successful "California Wine Map", The Wine Appreciation Guild has just released the "Quick Access Napa-Sonoma Wine Country Map and Guide" spotlighting the wineries and vineyards of the country’s wine capital. This full color, topographically precise map is the most comprehensive Napa-Sonoma wine map on the market with over 400 wineries and vineyards.

"Quick Access Napa-Sonoma" features a detailed listing of wineries and vineyards in Napa and Sonoma Counties, including name, address, phone, tastings and public or by appointment only tours. It also lists area tasting rooms and gourmet groceries. The map's simple accordion fold makes it easy-to-use, even when opened to its full size of 12 x 26 inches. And one doesn’t have to be the rough and tumble itinerant to appreciate that it’s laminated.

"The success of our recent 'California Wine Map' told us that people not only appreciate California's wine country, but also appreciate an accurate, well-made, user-friendly map," said H. Hesse, a mapmaker since 1967 and founder of Global Graphics. "The number one request we received was for a map focusing specifically on Napa-Sonoma and we were delighted to once again combine our passion for cartography with our appreciation of this beautiful area."

The California Wine Map became a quick favorite among the states professional wine country day-trippers. Charles E. Olken, wine writer for the Los Angeles Times called it "One of the best and least expensive guides on the market," and American Airlines American Way magazine declared it a "must have." Anthony Dias Blue on KFWB-FM (Los Angeles) said, "If you travel in search of wine, you're going to love the California Wine Map. This isn't just one of those slick brochures published by the local wine-country tourist board. It's a full-fledged, state-of-the-art, satellite-generated map of California made by a well-known cartography company called Global Graphics."

The California Wine Map was also highly recommended by The New York Times, Minneapolis Star Tribune, Oakland Tribune, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and Wine & Spirits Magazine.

Global Graphics maps feature full color thematic cartography, based on satellite photography and global information systems, and use data from several sources to ensure information is up-to-date and complete. Global Graphics maps are among the most accurate and user-friendly on the market. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars great resource
Great Resource!!I loved using this map to find wineries and major streets in Napa/Sonoma Vallies.A dry erase marker helped highlight special places of interest for my daily trips. The baskside of the map list most of the local wineries. Don't leave home without it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Best Resource for NAPA / Sonoma
I have purchased and gifted 20+ of these maps, THE BEST for traveling in CA wine country.Pre-planning is tough, this map lets you see where you are in relation to wineries and call ahead for tastings etc. based on where you end up.Laminated with the map on one side and all the numbers you need on the back, far superior to flipping through a wine book, or trying to "zoom out" on your nav system and see whats around.

We like to drive up, hit a winery, decide on where to go for dinner, then find another winery between where we are and where we want to be.Far superior to trying to plan it all out in advance.

5-0 out of 5 stars necessity for touring wine country
This map is essential if you plan on touring Napa and Sonoma vineyards and wine tastings.Besides showing us the way, the reverse side of the map gave us vital information concerning hours of operation, phone numbers and tours.We didn't get in the car without it.

5-0 out of 5 stars A must bring on your next trip
This is a great visual tool to help lay out your next trip to Napa Valley.Small and compact but laminated so you don't have to worry about wrinkles.

1-0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this map
worst map I have ever used.Save your money and pick one up at the wineries when you get down there - they are much more accurate (surprise!) ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Kären Wigen probes regional cartography, choerography, and statecraft to redefine restoration (ishin) in modern Japanese history. As developed here, that term designates not the quick coup d'état of 1868 but a three-centuries-long project of rehabilitating an ancient map for modern purposes. Drawing on a wide range of geographical documents from Shinano (present-day Nagano Prefecture), Wigen argues that both the founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate (1600-1868) and the reformers of the Meiji era (1868-1912) recruited the classical map to serve the cause of administrative reform. Nor were they alone; provincial men of letters played an equally critical role in bringing imperial geography back to life in the countryside. To substantiate these claims, Wigen traces the continuing career of the classical court's most important unit of governance--the province--in central Honshu. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Topographic Relief Atlas!
This is a great atlas, and at a great price too! It gives you a good idea of what the topography is going to look like, so you can plan your week end getaways, and can be used as a road atlas too. Note that there is also one for Oregon that you can buy.

5-0 out of 5 stars What A Relief [Map]
No one map [or atlas] can serve all purposes.The Benchmark California Road And Recreation Atlas seems to fill a middle ground between the pure road atlas [the Thomas Guide California atlas is my number one pick in this category] and a topographic/backroads atlas [the DeLorme atlases are my favorites in this category].The Benchmark atlases are good road atlases with color-coded and shaded relief added to indicate topography.Each map covers more territory than the maps in the DeLorme atlases.This means less detail than the DeLorme maps and I wouldn't want to do much backroad driving with only the Benchmark atlas available for reference.I generally bring my copy of the Benchmark atlas with me on road trips because I find it good for doing a visual and mental overview of the area I'm exploring.I think all travel enthusiasts should have a copy of this atlas in their map library and especially those who want information on topography, but are contour line phobic.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Benchmark atlas is the best I've seen.
This atlas is highly recommended.The beautiful maps are great for looking at (and daydreaming) at home or as a navigation tool on the road.I have already given two as gifts.It is simply the best atlas ofCalifornia on the market.

4-0 out of 5 stars A beautiful, easy-to-use topographic atlas
The folks at Benchmark have come up with a single-volume atlas of California that's easy to use, and beautiful to look at.The ergonomics are great -- the choice of text and line styles make roads and cities easyto locate, there are generous overlaps between adjacent map pages, andevery 2-page spread has a scale of miles and a tiny California outlineshowing this page's coverage.Very clear lat & long grids aid in GPSnavigation.

The most distinctive feature, though, is the topography. Color is keyed to altitude, and shading is also used to give a clearpicture of the land's contours.Combined, they give a very detailed imageof how the land will be shaped when you get where you're going.

For thoseinterested in adventuring on California's back roads, the obviouscomparison is with DeLorme's Southern California Atlas & Gazetteer, andits Northern California companion.I've used the DeLorme books for years,and have the following comments comparing the Benchmark atlas withthem:

Pro: better ergonomics. The text fonts, road lines etc. are clearerin the Benchmark atlas.The "look and feel" makes it more of apleasure to work with.

Pro: more discernable land contours (the newedition of the DeLorme books add some shading to help in the interpretationof the oft-confusing contour lines, which helps a lot, but it's still notas sharp as the Benchmark book.Note that I've seen this new contourshading in the Southern CA book, and haven't seen a new Northern CA bookyet)

Pro: Seems to be more up-to-date (e.g. the Recreation Pages show alot of the recent changes to the desert parks.The Benchmark book shows anew bypass through Barstow that isn't in the new DeLorme edition (confusedthe heck out of my group once))

Pro: All of California in onebook!

Con: Not as detailed.There's a reason they can fit it all in onebook: it's at twice the scale of the DeLorme's (1:300,000 instead of1:150,000).Some small features, such as mine sites, aren't in theBenchmark book.I examined various regions I've visited, and most of thesame dirt roads are in Benchmark book, but not as many of them are labeled. (In fairness, there's a corresponding "Pro", in that twice asmuch area is covered on a page, so there's less flipping around)

Con:Many park & base boundaries are not shown on the detailed maps.Whilethe borders of some national parks are shown on the detailed maps, many ofthem only have a label in the middle, and you must turn to theless-detailed Recreation Maps section to get a sense of their borders. This can be frustrating when you're planning a drive in the region of anoff-limits area like China Lake Naval Weapons Center.This shortcoming isthe main reason I don't give it five stars -- I hope they correct it infuture editions.

Con: No indication of land surface.The Benchmark bookuses color exclusively for elevation; the forested Sierras look just likethe mountains around Death Valley. DeLorme uses color to show levels ofvegetation, etc.So, you can look at Desolation Wilderness near LakeTahoe, and get a sense of which parts are forested and which are opengranite.

So, which is better?I'd say it depends on what you want to do. If you mostly stick to the paved roads, and/or tend to supplement youratlas with more detailed maps (park service, forest service, USGS topos,etc.), and want something that gives a better sense of "the bigpicture" of what the land is doing, you might be happier with theBenchmark book.For a driving tour at highway speed, the detail of theDeLorme book is probably excessive -- you'll be flipping a lot ofpages.

On the other hand, if you really want to get out on the dirttrails and find your own site in the backcountry, you'll appreciate theDeLorme's greater detail.

Personally, I like having as many differentmaps available as possible, so I'd say "Get Both".Inparticular, if you have an older edition of the DeLorme book, and arethinking about upgrading to the newer edition with contour shading, youmight want to consider keeping your old one, and getting the Benchmark bookinstead. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Great bunch of maps in one simple book
I keep this in my car at all times. It encompasses a state-wide map, along with city & street maps for every major city (and not so major cities) in California. I was always forgetting to bring my fold-out maps when I would travel, and now I don't have to. So, instead of needing 50 fold out maps, everything is in one simple book.

This is a must-have for anybody who enjoys a quick road trip or a real vacation.

5-0 out of 5 stars All of CA is right here for you to find and experience....
I too, bought my 1st copy of this map book at Costco, now I am purchasing more as gifts. To anyone who loves and/or lives in California, this is a must have. Want to get out and have no idea where to go? Know where you need to go, but don't quite know how to get there? It is all in here and then some....Gather up your California road map/atlas, get in your car and let your inner child out to play. It lists campgrounds, State Parks and little known places just begging for you to enjoy. California is a place for all types to recharge their batteries and this is the perfect book to help you find the places that can do just that! You just can't get this detailed of info. in any fold out map.....

2-0 out of 5 stars Format is too small
I bought this atlas at Costco and ended up returning it. Since the page size is only 8 1/2 by 11, it is next to impossible to see enough detail to be useful. You would be better collecting a half dozen fold-out regional California maps. The city maps are somewhat better, but still small. ... Read more
