Hi
try the search facility.
Someone else asked this question today.
The answer was mainly michelin.
Peter
The "michelin" answer deserves a little bit of expansion on its multiple meanings.
Michelin does publish maps; you can buy them in the US and once you are in Europe, and they really are great. Then there is the whole debate about (bound) road atlases - - versus (fold'n'unfold) highway maps.
But Michelin is also www.viamichelin.com - - and you can get specific advice on the route from point A to B - - fastest, shortest, most scenice, with or without mountain passes, etc. Of course, you probaly won't have internet access in your car in your europe - - so you will need to spend sometime on this website before your trip - - and printout some results.
Check out www.mappy.com or www.shellgeostar.com as well.
Best wishes,
Rex
I don't have the detailed info to hand, but you might want to get a road atlas of Italy, for instance, from an Italian mapmaker, probably the Touring Club of Italy.
Ditto Spain.

It's available from various Internet outlets, do a web search. Rand McNally must have it. Or order it from your local book store.
