Battles of the American Civil War Wall Map, encapsulated version, from the National Geographic Society showing the deployments of the Union and Confederate forces, battles, etc. with a time chart of major events from April 1861 to April 1865.

The map covers ten of the eleven Confederate states, with just the eastern borderlands of Texas and of the Indian Territory allied to the Confederacy, plus the adjoining regions of the Union states. Movements of the two armies during major land campaigns are marked, along with battle sites, classified as decisive, major and limited. Also marked are naval campaigns by the Union with dates when various ports were captured.

The main battlefield region of Virginia, between Washington DC and the area around the Confederate capital of Richmond, is shown enlarged to present the information in greater detail. A series of three smaller maps show the turning points of the war.

Along the bottom of the map, a time chart shows the “The Most Deadly Years” from April 1861 to April 1865, with battle sites cross-referenced to the map and annotated with dates and casualty figures.

This map is also available on paper without the encapsulation.
