This important pair of post Civil War hand colored surveyors maps illustrate the positions and imbattlements of the opposing forces during Sherman's 1864 March to the Sea and capture of Savannah.
Also included are detailed drawings of the Battles of Peachtree Creek and Selma Alabama and the Union and Rebel Defenses of the March from Chattanooga to Atlanta.
One map is titled "Map illustrating the March of the army under Maj. Gen. Sherman from Atlanta to Savannah Nov 15 to Dec 21st 1864." The other reads " Map of Savannah Georgia and vicinity illustrating operations of the army under the command Maj. Gen. Sherman resulting in the fall of that city December 21, 1864."
These detailed and informative maps were compiled by the Army Corp of Engineers from 1866 to 1881 and also show details of minor skirmishes in the area between the opposing forces.
Framed in simple wooden frames with glass, the sitelines are 28 inches across x 17 inches tall.
