I was pleasantly surprised to find that useful notes accompany each map. They really add to the work and make it more than a mere collection of visuals. Unfortunately, I didn't take the "Classical" aspect of the title into account and was expecting to find references for Mesopotamia and also possibly the Ottoman empire. Nevertheless, I'm very pleased with my purchase and highly recommend Mr. Talbert's work.
excellent for neophytes but October 1, 2008

this is a volume quite well compiled, especially for the social and human aspects of the ancient classical world. but the practical neglect of natural features (relief etc.), as well as its focus on the general view, limits its usefulness badly as soon as you go yourself into authors like strabon, pausanias the periegete or yet plutarch.

Amazon notified me that I would receive the above book on or about 19th February 2008. To date I have not received it so therefore cannot review it.
Regards,
