Pub Note:
All eight maps are derived and enlarged from an 1865 "Military Map of Middle Tennessee and parts of East Tennessee..." by C.S. Mergell (LC Civil War maps, 393) which was published in 1874. Each map says "Positions of the Troops located in 1891." Covers are half leather, red cloth covered boards with label reading "The Middle Tennessee and Chattanooga Campaign of 1863 including the Battle of Chickamauga." These maps are of great interest to historians of these battles because the level of detail regarding troop positions, etc. is very good. With printed color. Maps printed by Julius Bien & Co.
