An unusual Civil War map with several interesting features. An 'explanation' gives information on territorial claims, both by the Confederate States and the Federal Union, including areas reclaimed from the Rebellion. Also gives the square miles and populations, all color-coded to the map. Several Western Territorial boundaries are incorrect. Good detail of railroads.
