A full view of the United States showing scores of military posts largely west of the Mississippi and, particularly, in Texas and the Southwest. Nine insets of southern harbor towns are arranged to the right and bottom: Baltimore, Washington, Norfolk, Charleston, Savannah, Key West, Pensacola, Mobile and New Orleans. The seven Military Departments of the United States are delineated. This steel engraved map features Johnson's first edition borders. The map was included in Civil War period atlases and was not included in the list of maps. A nice example.
