30% off the $250 cover price. Weighing in at nearly 14 pounds (with its slipcase), this gilded, leather-bound, beribboned atlas is not only more pounds per dollar than the beloved Times Comprehensive Atlas (Item GEN71), but this extravagant beast has more maps, many city maps, large maps of every state of the union, easy-to-read cartography and eye-catching physical relief. And at 12 x 16 inches, it might actually fit on your desk. What it doesn't have is the definitive index, every place name you can imagine -- or a whopping big page size.  (WLD152, $175.00)
