Product Details:

This is a very unique set of three Gettysburg battlefield maps, depicting respectively the events of the first, second and third day of the battle, was compiled by John Bachelder and published in 1876 by the Army Corps of Engineers. Each frame consists of an identical base map of the natural and man-made features of the battlefield, upon which are superimposed the troop positions and movements for that day, with the Union forces shown in blue and the Confederates in red (on this assembled set the background tints vary sheet to sheet, though the base topographic data is identical). They are a very minute analysis of the deployment of the various units of both armies, with the names of commanding officers, period of time spent in a particular position, and other pertinent information is given. Dotted lines and arrows indicate the movements of the troops, and the positions at various times of the day are shown by symbols explained in the legend.
