More academic and photographic accounts on the battle of Gettysburg exist than for all other battles of the Civil War combined—and for good reason. The three days of maneuver, attack, and counterattack consisted of scores of encounters, from corps-size actions to small unit engagements. Despite all its coverage, Gettysburg remains one of the most complex and difficult to understand battles of the war. The Maps Gettysburg by Bradley Gottfried offers a unique approach to the study of this multifaceted engagement.

Now available as an ebook short, The Maps of Gettysburg: Pickett’s Charge and the Retreat to Virginia, July 3-14, 1863 plows new ground in the study of the campaign by breaking down the entire campaign in 25 detailed full page original maps.
