Which US History Atlas?

I'm putting together my own American History Year 1 for this year, primarily for my 3rd grader with my K'er tagging along for some books. I'm wanting a paper US History atlas of some sort to have on hand for reference.

 

I currently have The Penguin Atlas of North American History on my wishlist ( http://amzn.com/0140511288)

 

But I'm also curious about this one that I saw on the Geography Matters website: http://www.home-school-curriculum.com/product/united-states-history-atlas

 

Any feedback or other suggestions? Is there another paper historical atlas of the US that you love?

This is a book in a series of four atlases of American history that are fantastic by the same author and illustrator. Each atlas focuses on a different aspect of American history. I love all of these, and though they are designed for kids, my husband and I both love them as well.

They aren't comprehensive, of course, but I think they are a good addition to a course on American history.

 

I haven't used this other resource, but I have it on my wish list. http://www.amazon.com/Interactive-Maps-Easy-Assemble-Concepts/dp/0439241146/

 

And of course, there is this one: http://www.amazon.com/Atlas-American-History-Rand-Mcnally/dp/0528934570/ It looks fairly comprehensive, and you can purchased used copies inexpensively.
