 Antietam National Battlefield

Trailhead Graphics, Antietam National Battlefield, Maryland
Civil War Battlefield Series
Detailed topographic map printed on two sides.  On one side is the contour map of the National Battlefield and vicinity.  Besides elevation contours, the map plots paved roads, gravel and dirt roads, historic traces and roads, and hiking trails, and shows park headquarters, picnic areas, and rest rooms.  Of particular interest to Civil War historians is that the map also shows monuments, markers, and tablets marking headquarters, mortuaries, states and regiments, Union and Confederate locations.  Also: historic farms or residences, hospitals, bridges and fords.  It also shows present day wooded cover and 1862 tree lines, and historic orchards.  Along the side of the map is a listing of the monuments with the units commemorated.  Two inset maps at the bottom show the region at smaller scale with troop movements for morning and midday phases and afternoon phases indicated.

The reverse side is dominated by organizational charts for each side listing commanders of each unit.  There is also considerable space devoted to a history of the battle.  Charts give a breakdown of the casualties at Antietam, comparisons of casualties of the worst Civil War battles, and casualties in all major American wars.  A list of basic park regulations completes the publication.

Scale, 1:12,000 (1 inch = 1000 feet = about 0.2 mile).  Contour interval = 10 feet.  Size: about 22 x 32 inches.  Folded.  Plastic.

Delmarva Peninsula

National Geographic / Trails Illustrated  Delmarva Peninsula
Excellent new topographic and road map printed on two sides, details the peninsula shared by DELaware, MARyland, and VirginiA.  Almost all of Delaware is on this peninsula, and all of the state is shown on the map.  One side shows the northern, Upper Peninsula, the reverse shows the Lower Peninsula.  Also includes Delaware Bay and Chesapeake Bay, and many of their subsidiary bays.  The map, in fact, ranges northeast to include a piece of Pennsylvania, west to include most of Baltimore, and south to Virginia Beach.

There are numerous parks and preserves within the area covered, and this map appears to have comprehensive coverage—certainly much more than you could expect to find on your average road map.  At this small scale, you won't find much help with trail details (though a few segments are depicted).  Rather, think of this as your guide to finding the various wildlands in the region.  Roads are numbered and classified as well as most road maps, so you can use it to guide you about the roads as well.

The map employ shaded relief to show the form of the land—but there is not many hills in the region, so you won't see much surface relief.  It also shows the undersea terrain, which has much more variation.  A green tint shows the extent of woodland.  Special symbols represent scenic byways, Chesapeake Bay Gateways, boat ramps, and points of interest.  Charts list the activities available in Delaware, Marland, and Virginia parks within the region.  Excellent color paintings show notable wildlife of the region, and these illustrate brief descriptions of prominent parks and reserves, such as Assateague Island National Seashore and Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge.  The UTM grid is included for the benefit of GPS users.

Scale, about 1:250,000 (1 inch = about 4 miles).  No contours.  Size: about 25½ x 37½ inches.  Folded.  Plastic.
