Description
This Special Military Map, found on the EDSITEment-reviewed American Memory project's Map Collections Web site, is a detailed look of the Savannah River. This reference is a map of the inlets & rivers of Savannah & Warsaw in the Province of Georgia. The Military Battles and Campaigns category contains maps showing campaigns of major military conflicts including troop movements, defensive structures and groundworks, roads to and from sites of military engagements, campsites, and local buildings, topography and vegetation. Some of the maps are manuscripts drawn on the field of battle, while others are engraved including some that have manuscript annotations reflecting the history of the battle or campaign. A significant number of battle maps provide information about the locality that is not available elsewhere such as the location of plantations, the names of landowners in the area, the configuration of small towns and villages, and indications of prior settlement by native Americans.
