This book is very unique in how it approaches the seerah. However, it isn't beginner-friendly if you want to start reading the Prophet's biography. It is a great companion to other seerah books, especially if you have already built your knowledge on the Prophet's biography. As the title says, it is full of maps. So if you find that boring, this book isn't for you.

Good idea that the author came up with using this 'atlas' format but it focused too much on battles for me. There were far too many full page maps showing where the battles occurred with arrows and a bold arrow referencing a particular battle. This was repeated each time a battle was mentioned.
