Remembered Today:

Battlefield mapping - American Civil War

Recommended Posts

Some time ago I'm sure there was a post about a book on the mapping of the American Civil War battles. I have searched the Forum without success.

Can anyone recall the post and the book? I'm trying to put together some examples of mapping the progress of battles which I can apply to WW 1 examples.

Thanks in advance.

Was there any progrees on the original proposal - an equivalent atlas of WWI battles??

I think it would be a great idea especially superimposed over modern maps.

There is a Westpoint Atlas to the battles of the Napoleonic Wars which is excellent and that covers 1792 to 1815 all over Europe and Egypt!

The system works. Phil was right on the spot.

I haven't seen any progress on the matter, although there are several members (Howard and Paul Hederer I think) who are involved in mapping exercises.

My approach will probably be very simple if I can work out the best software to use. I'll probably work from a trench map or a topographical map and have a series of overlays.
