A propos de cet article

Average. Thin paper. Discoloration and tide marks, left side. Trimmed to neatline, likely by publisher. Upper right corner reinstated. Slight foxing. Multiple minor closed edge tears, stabilized on verso. Some older tape repairs on verso. Size 22.75 x 29.5 Inches. An extremely rare c. 1863 Charles Magnus broadside map of the Chesapeake, Virginia, Washington D.C. theater of the American Civil War (1861 - 1865). The map records the early days of the war when the Confederacy was rapidly advancing and before the high-water mark at Gettysburg. A Closer Look The map is printed on thin paper in blue ink. Coverage embraces roughly 100 miles around Richmond, thus encompassing the primary theater of the early days of the Civil War: the Chesapeake Bay Region, the Richmond-Washington D.C. corridor, and parts of eastern Virginia. Smaller maps detail 'Ninety Miles Around Nashville Tenn.', 'Ninety Miles around Harrisburg Pa.', 'Beaufort N.C. Charleston S.C. and Surroundings', 'Pittsburg Pa. and Surroundings', 'Ninety Miles around Vicksburg Miss.', and 'Ninety Mils around Baton Rouge La.' Battle sites are marked with crossed swords. Major rail lines, vital to the war on both sides, are illustrated. Publication History and Census This map was engraved and published in New York by Charles Magnus c. 1863. The view is undated, but we do not see any battles predating 1862 and the July 1863 Battle of Gettysburg is not marked, meaning it must have been issued between late 1862 and early 1863. The map likely had a very limited run due to being rapidly outdated by the fast pace of the war. The map is rare. We see just three cataloged examples: the Library of Congress, Boston Public Library, and Pennsylvania State University Libraries. References: OCLC 53002619. Library of Congress G3884.R5S5 186- .M34.
