- MAP TITLES: the grids shown on our website serve both the civilian & the military 1:50, 000 topographic series. Although the areas covered by maps in both series are identical (apart from some border or coastal sheets), occasionally map titles differ – only one title is shown on the grid, usually the military one. In Galicia, the Basque country & in the Catalan speaking areas the tendency now is to use local place names rather than the often better known Castilian ones. Where possible, both versions are included in our titles. Map titles listed on our website are based on information received by us at the time of publication, but sometimes maps arrive showing a completely different title! As long as the map number is as ordered, the correct map has been supplied.

A prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that both he & others in Auschwitz coped (or didn`t) with the experience. He noticed that it was the men who comforted others & who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest
- & who offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances. The sort of person the concentration camp prisoner became was the result of an inner decision & not of camp influences alone. Frankl came to believe man`s deepest desire is to search for meaning & purpose. This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering & find significance in the art of living.
