A printed battle map from 1876 gives a useful view of Gettysburg as veterans and surveyors remembered it roughly a decade and a half after the fighting. Maps of this kind were often produced for the growing trade in battlefield tourism and for veterans who wanted to trace their regiments' positions on the ground. The third day of the battle, July 3, 1863, ended Robert E. Lee's invasion of the North with Pickett's Charge against the Union center on Cemetery Ridge, and a map from this period helps show how the high ground, the stone walls and the open fields below it shaped that assault.
