A New Census Atlas
The US Census Bureau has published what it is calling its "first comprehensive atlas in more than 80 years."
The new Census Atlas of the United States includes map presentations of a variety of demographic factors from the 2000 Census. And there are comparisons with earlier data. The image at used here, for example, is a reproduction from Scribner's Statistical Atlas of the United States (1883).
Most of the maps are at the national level, with some detailed maps for metropolitan areas and major cities.
This is a coffee-table style of book -- large format, with 300 pages and almost 800 maps. The Atlas is available on-line in PDF format and can be purchased on-line (for your favorite state GIS Coordinator, perhaps?) for $165.
