As a Mid-Atlantic map filed with the Gettysburg material, it shows the town within a much wider region of roads, rivers and rail lines that armies used to move between Washington, Baltimore and Harrisburg. During the Civil War, control of these routes shaped the campaigns of 1862 and 1863, when Union and Confederate forces repeatedly crossed Maryland, Virginia and Pennsylvania. Maps like this were essential to commanders and newspaper readers alike, since they showed how far a small town lay from the next supply depot or battlefield. Its interest today lies in seeing how Gettysburg fit into a theater of war that stretched far beyond its own fields.
