Note:
Folded broadside inserted in Newspaper, printed without color. Probably a few weeks later than the Stephenson 451.3 (June 17, 1861) because some of the troop counts are increased (Richmond). The engraver credit for Waters & Son is not present, and the map appears to be reengraved. The map has the feel of an "hot off the press" look at the battlefields of the war. Shows military fortifications, roads and railroads. Relief shown by hachures.
