I recognize that sentiment.
(It helped if I told her to turn the map around or to turn it in the
direction we were going!)

Once upon a time I used road maps and map books too. Or rather, I
drove while wife attempted to read a map. She doesn't read one and
can't learn. Every 15 minutes or so as we drove, we would get into
a terrific quarrel -- me asking for directions and she insisting
that the map didn't have our road on it. As always, the quarrel
ended with me pulling to the shoulder of the road (or stopping on
the road if there was no shoulder) and glancing at the map for 15
seconds to find out where we were and how to make the next turn. By
the end of the trip we despised each other.
Since using a GPS, all our quarrels have ended. A wonderful marital aid.
