From the Publisher: See what the battle leaders of the Civil War saw!
A primary source of intelligence in the Civil War, maps were as valuable and critical as rifles and cannons. These rare maps, many never published, and many in manuscript form, show us a new face of this historic war. Mapping the Civil War incorporates maps, photographs, and original drawings. By breaking the war into the major battles and illustrating each battle with critical and beautiful maps, photographs, and sketches, this book shows us what the battle leaders saw and gives us an intimate and fascinating view of the strategy of the Civil War.
