25 x 35 in. folding map bound within original 4 1/2 x 6 1/2 in. boards with illustrated cover (some areas of partial separation at fold lines, some edge wear to map; wear to boards, incl. spine, edges and corners). The map is bound together with 35pp. of text entitled, "Brief Description of Battles and Skirmishes of the War," which covers significant events and battles from December 1860 to May 1864.
