I'm giving this this edition one star because of the information that follows.This edition states--right on the cover--that it "now provides information on GPS." That is literally true but very misleading. I had expected information about how to use GPS along with a map or compass, or using GPS only. But instead, the very few statements about GPS just tell you that GPS is BAD, and maps and compasses are good. If you look in the table of contents, you won't see any chapter about GPS. Go to the index and you see only three (that's right, three) pages which mention GPS. Page two tells us how GPS doesn't work well in forests, canyons, etc. Then go to page 14 - 15, and you'll find that Ms. Elgin and the publishers were in such a hurry to cash in on the success of the original version, they couldn't even get the index right. There is NOTHING on these pages about GPS, but of course if there were, it would only be, again, that GPS is BAD and maps and compasses are good.Perhaps the publisher missed that on page 20, the book states that maps tell you about the geographic features of the area,"not just how to get there, as with a Global Positioning System." After this, I stopped reading, although I did look throughout the book for something useful about GPS. I didn't see anything, and the index doesn't contradict this as, again, there are only three pages which supposedly provide information on GPS.It's unfortunate that the author's daughter found it necessary to dishonestly attempt to sell more books with this phony "revised edition." I've ordered the previous edition.
