WW2 Atlas suggestions?
Good afternoon folks, I hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday.

I've recently begun delving into JTS' Panzer Campaigns series, thanks in no small part to their WDS Gold updates. Consequently, these games are persuading me to study up historically and geographically. The books I have collected have decent maps, but I'm yearning for a comprehensive atlas that I can conveniently refer to as I read my various books on WW2.

Any and all suggestions are appreciated. Thank in advance..!

This is for east front: http://armchairgeneral.com/rkkaww2/maps.htm.
I will see if I have anything similar for west/south front.

There is alot of free stuff available that may work out better than paying for a book atlas.

Here are some map links for you.

Best one that I've seen in my travel's.

Atlas of the Eastern Front 1941-45 by Robert Kirchubel, published by Osprey.

Bought it from Amazon at a really good price, just checked still £26 here in the UK, the hardback edition comes in a sleeve.

Thank you Ricky, but unfortunately I cannot read Cyrillic.

Thank you also, Compass Rose. I discovered some of your links already from my initial search.

I'd still appreciate suggestions for actual books because they are much more convenient to refer to as I read along.

Edit: And thank you Lowlander, I'll look in that Osprey title.

Maybe look into these, if you can find them.

Try to find them in spiral bound as it will be alot easier to view if they are totally flat.

These may just be the ticket. Thank you Compass Rose.
