Between June 1864 and April 1865, the longest siege in American warfare, Grant's Union army relentlessly isolated and cut Confederate General Robert E. Lee's supply lines. Daily fighting, including some major skirmishes was a way of life for both armies. Finally, on the night of April 2, realizing his 37-mile trench line was extremely vulnerable, Lee evacuated Petersburg. The final surrender at Appomattox Court House was but a week away.
Map Features: A regional topographic map of the entire Petersburg area, from City Point to Five Forks is the highlight of this publication. The reverse side features several highly detailed, nicely scaled maps including Pamplin Historical Park, all National Park Service areas, and Civil War Preservation Site properties. This map is perfect for exploring this area crucial to America's history.
