A Section of the Colton Map of the United States used by General Grant in marking the proposed lines of operations of the army of the United States in 1864.
Description: It is a double page map with lithograph color from the Atlas to Accompany the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies, published by the Secretary of War, (Washington: Government Printing Office, 1891-1895), undoubtedly the most complete set of accurate maps of the Civil War ever published. The title of the atlas appears in the top left margin and plate number in the upper right. A copy of the title page is included with all the publishing details for authenticity. The atlas was published in a very limited context to be distributed to government officials in the three houses of government as a reference for assessing the Civil War. This is from the original first publishing, that lasted from 1891-5. In general, these maps are very detailed showing lines of approach, battle formations, forts, batteries, dates, various armies and officers involved, topography down to houses in many cases and other details and historical notes. The Union lines are in blue and the Confederate in Red.
Size: The map image measures 16 by 27 inches on a page measuring approximately 18 by 29 inches with plenty of margin all around for framing. It is a full double page sheet as issued.
Condition: The map sheet is in Very Good to Excellent condition with overall light tonal aging. There is a faint hint of green in the right margin, otherwise it is very clean printed on strong paper, blank on the reverse. Pics are of the actual map.
