Voor vele landen net zo goed, zo niet beter dan de Planet. Beduidend soberder uitgevoerd, maar ook met veel informatie voor zelfstandige reizigers of backpackers en met veel kaartmateriaal. Een aanrader!

Comprehensive mapping for the Battle of Verdun 1916 and a sizable part of the early days of the Meuse-Argonne Offensive 1918.
