Then And Now Bible Maps
This volume is a basic Bible Maps resource. Its main feature is that it includes Clear Plastic Overlays that show modern borders. For example, if you are reading about a city in the Old Testament, you can see where it would be located according to modern day geography. A spiral-bound hardcover, it is only 20 pages long.
This is a companion product to the Rose Publishing Then and Now Bible Maps PowerPoint which is great for study and teaching purposes.
Deluxe Then & Now Bible Maps
The Deluxe Then & Now Bible Maps volume is an expanded edition of the Then & Now Bible Maps (above). For an additional $10, you receive a CD ROM and about 20 more pages. It contains the clear overlays for many of the maps showing modern day borders. The Table of Contents is particularly helpful.
"When I was studying for my trip to Israel, this was the map book that I used for the most part. I found it easy to use." -Chris, GFP Warehouse Manager
Rose Then and Now Bible Map Atlas with Biblical Background and Culture
This volume is a major Atlas, containing a lot of text, commentary, and history. It is a lot more than just a map book. It is a case-bound book (the rest of the Rose Map books are lay-flat coil bound). This altas is 272 pages (compare with 40 pages for the Deluxe Then & Now Bible Maps). It would take a lot of familiarization for this to become a regular Bible study tool in your library.

There is also this volume, which includes a lot of the same maps as the other atlases mentioned above. The clear overlays, however, are not included. Instead of overlays, it contains a historical map followed by the present day map below on the same page. This Rose volume provides a lot of additional charts, etc.
