| On our Raven map of North America: "Designing the latest offering from Raven Maps & Images, cartographer Stuart Allan combined geographical data going back to the railroad surveys of the 1800s with the latest computer programming. The result is a detailed rendering of the landforms, major roads, cities and political boundaries of North America that seems to jump off the page and makes fellow cartographers go 'Wow!' with envy." |

| "What distinguishes the maps, quite simply, is that they are beautiful...Will Tefft of Map Link, a California-based map wholesaler, says without qualification, 'Allan Cartography is the best cartographic production company on the continent....When you're dealing with a graphic image, there's an artistry to it. That's Allan Cartography. They have the eye. A lot of companies try it and they don't have the eye. It's art.'" |

| "The Atlas of Oregon...is superb, ranking among the very best atlases ever. It has intense 3-dimensional resolution in exquisitely detailed maps (in the elegant style of Stuart Allan's Raven maps). The statistical displays are detailed, clear, often fascinating, and up-to-date. And the entire atlas is beautifully designed and produced. I include the Atlas of Oregon... among my very favorite atlases." |
