Atlas of the Moon by Antonin Rükl is a very good traditional atlas, I don't have a copy but have borrowed it from the club library.
Two that I do have.
The Cambridge Photographic Moon Atlas is not laid out in a grid as such but breaks the moon into key areas based on major features. It then has a series of images to show the detail in that area. It's not the type of book I would take into the field but use it as an indoor reference.
21st Century Atlas of the Moon Charles A. Wood and Maurice J.S. Collins. I only just picked this one up 2 days ago. It is spiral bound for easy use in the field and uses a grid of 28 sections. Has a photo for each grid with labelled features then some close ups of major features in that field.
It covers the limb with 8 additional charts and has a section to provide more detail on the basins & mare ridges. Finally Apollo and probe landing sites and a short section on the far side.
