A 1914 map of the Gettysburg battlefield stands out from the photographs and engravings that usually fill a gallery of this subject because it was drawn for people who wanted to walk the ground. Printed for visitors to the park, it marks the positions of Union and Confederate units across the three days of fighting in July 1863, and its date places it in the years when the battlefield was being shaped into a memorial landscape. Gettysburg had been set aside as a national military park by Congress in 1895, and by 1914 the monuments, avenues, and tablets that guide tourists today were well underway. Look closely at the legend and the small markers to see how the route was meant to be followed.
