I have 4 no-rush Amazon dollars. This seems like a good use for 2 of them. If you want to check your no-rush balance you can use this link.

Ugh mine always expire before I can use them. I'm never doing that again. So stupid, you can't even figure out WHEN they expire until AFTER you get your item, and by then you're likely to forget you had them.

Quote from swimgeek :
Many reviews mention that this book is not well suited for reading on Kindle/Kindle for iPad due to low resolution of maps. Maps on Kindle for PC seem to better but few of them are sideways.
Must be a great book on paper though!

Lots of positive reviews for the physical book, not sure that I saw any/many for the Kindle version.

Looks like an interesting book, but I downloaded the sample to my 11" iPad Pro and the maps were only medium resolution. So passing on this.

Map book on a digital device is not a good combo. Nothing like the paper editions to get a sense for distances. I'd totally buy this if it were available in hardback.

From what I'm seeing, it's $2 for the kindle version and $42+ for the book. I'd love the book but having to use the limited viewing of the kindle compared to paper, I'll have to wait. I was hoping for the book for $2.

Excellent maps and commentary. Easy to enlarge maps with 2 finger expand. I give this deal 5 stars.
