This compact, yet comprehensive volume provides both narrative history and a cartographic display of the Battle of Gettysburg that make the events of the engagement both vivid and comprehensible. From the moment the Confederacy determined to launch an invasion in the North, to Lee's retreat across the Potomac into Virginia, the strategic and tactical movements of both armies are portrayed in twenty-four pages, three color maps accompanied by a page of explanatory text keyed to the map. This is the third collaborative work of Naval Academy professor Craig L. Symonds and cartographer William J. Clipson.
