Shiloh, Chattanooga and the other great Civil War battles give these maps of Tennessee a strong military character, alongside the growth of Memphis and Nashville. State and territorial sheets by Arrowsmith and Lewis, Buchon, Johnson and Colton sit beside county, railway and geological maps, and maps of Native American land cessions identify Cherokee and Chickasaw territories. Battlefield plans of Shiloh, Fort Donelson, Stones River, Chattanooga, Franklin and Nashville record troop positions stage by stage. The prints show Fort Pillow, Lookout Mountain, river floods, the public buildings of the capital and the Cumberland and Mississippi, and a pictorial map of Memphis centred on Elvis Presley brings the story into modern times.
