Penny Sheldon Review of latest National Geographic Atlas #11
It was a great pleasure to have this great Atlas in my hands again. I was gifted an Atlas in 1960 by my sister, and it remained with me until I wrote my M' levels in Rhodesia. It was an amazing book and was never far from my nightstand, however it didn't travel with me to South Africa as my mother took it with her to England after I left. I have always wanted another copy in the family, and this year I was able to afford it and gave the 11th Edition to my two young grandchildren. It has been a gift well received, and I thank you for keeping up with the times. Thank you, Thank you, and Thank you. Kind regards, Penny Sheldon
