Cameroon and Gabon at 1:1,300,000 on a light, waterproof and tear-resistant, indexed road map with topographic and tourist information, published by Reise Know-How as part of their highly acclaimed World Mapping Project. The map is double-sided to provide the best balance between a good scale and a convenient size sheet. 

The whole of each country is on one side of the map, with coverage also including Equatorial Guinea with Isla de Bioco, and São Tomé e Príncipe. Topography is shown by altitude colouring with contours, spot heights, and graphics for marshlands and seasonal rivers and lakes. National parks and protected areas are highlighted.

Road network includes local dirt tracks, indicating driving distances on main roads and locations of petrol stations. Railway lines and local airfields are also marked. Internal administrative boundaries are shown with names of the provinces.

A wide range of symbols highlights various places of interest, including archaeological remains, selected hotels and campsites, beaches, etc. The map has a latitude and longitude grid at intervals of 1°. A separate index of place names is provided for each side, with a list of national parks and reserves. Map legend includes English.

ITM har kart over hele verden og de spesialiserer seg på land litt utenfor allfarvei. Beliggenheten til landets nasjonalparker, historiske monumenter, de viktigste veiene o.L. Finner du inkludert i kartene. Samtlige landkart har ofte et bykart over hovedstaden.

From ITMB: Africa is blessed with many diverse countries. Cameroun and Gabon are two of the stable, tourist-friendly countries, with easy access from Europe by air. This map has two covers, so can be displayed cover-outwards to focus on each country. Cameroun emerged out of the German colony of Kameroun after WW1 and was jointly administered by Britain and France until the 1960s. An inset of Yaounde;, the capital, is included, as is an inset of Douala, the country's major port city. The second side concentrates on Gabon, a former French colony that shares a border with Cameroun. This side includes two inset map; one of Libreville, the country's capital, with the other detailing Bioko Island in Equatorial Guinea. Mainland Equatorial Guinea is also included on the side of the map, at the same scale as Gabon. Thus, one gets three countries for the price of one! This is the only map of Equatorial Guinea that I am aware of being in print.
