War Telegram Marking Map
Rare Books
"Explanations : The extraordinary scale on which this map is drawn has been adopted to make it just what we had designed it to be, namely 1st the most distinct Map ever published of the entire Virginia territory, where the decisive battles for the Union will be fought. 2nd, A Marking Map, that is a map to mark the change of position of the Union Forces in red pencil and the Rebel forces in blue, on the receipt of every Telegram from the seat of the War; for this latter purpose we want plenty of space and a distinctness combined with enough detail, not to crowd but to enable us to follow the march of the Army as advised by the Telegrams. The pencils which we also furnish should be used with a light hand to enable obliterating the marks with the aid of a little soft bread, if found necessary. These peculiarities combined with extreme cheapness will make this map a welcome companion to every person interested in the pending struggle of our nation." Prime meridian: GM. Relief: hachures. Projection: Cylindrical. Printing Process: Lithography.
