Description

The full title of this map reads, "A Map Showing the Scene of Longstreet's Final Assault on the Union Lines at Gettysburg, July 3, 1863 and the Positions of the Respective Bodies of Troops therein of both Armies." This map was prepared by the Gettysburg National Park Commission and based "upon the evidence carefully gathered from all sources and collated by said Commission." The above note was attributed to Lt. Col. E.. Cope, Engineer. S.H. Hammond's name also appeared on the map as the assistant engineer. The map indicates where military leaders died or were wounded, such as Gen. Kemper, Gen. Garnett, and Gen. Armistead and the positions of Union and Confederate troops. This map is almost identical to the map of the same name (MilColl.CivilWar.Maps.9).
