The title points to the first day of fighting at Gettysburg on July 1, 1863, when Confederate infantry met Union cavalry west of town and the clash quickly grew into a full battle. Fighting spread across the fields and ridges northwest of the borough, and by afternoon Union units had been pushed back through the streets toward Cemetery Hill. Maps of the field were widely sought afterward by veterans, historians and families trying to trace where each unit had stood, and this sheet reflects that long interest in the ground itself.
