Item description from seller

A paramount Civil War item, with ".[m]uch local color and numerous incidents. The action of each Confederate command is followed in detail" (Douglas Southall Freeman). Howes notes some copies were issued with only one map and some copies were issued with two, as in the present case. "The maps are the best which appear in any Confederate book" - Harwell. This copy includes the maps titled, "Battle Field of Young's Branch, or Manassas Plains" and "Map of the country occupied by the Federal and Confederate Armies." The first is a very detailed illustration of the battlefield, drawn by James L. Bowen, and lithographed by Hoyer and Ludwig of Richmond for inclusion in the official report of the battle. The second, also by Hoyer and Ludwig, depicts troop positions and movements, roads, railroads, houses, and other significant geographical features. HOWES W101, "aa." CONFEDERATE HUNDRED 96. CORNERSTONES OF CONFEDERATE COLLECTING 5. CRANDALL 2662. PARRISH & WILLINGHAM 5100. Dbd. A touch of light tanning. First map with several separations and a few old repairs at folds, second map with evidence of previous mounting, two small closed tears at top margin. About very good. In a folding cloth case.…
