July 3, 2013, was the 150th Anniversary of Pickett’s Charge at the Battle of Gettysburg. I’ve already done a long post which describes George R. Stewart’s book about the Charge.
Today, on a lighter note, I’m sending out a new map of the event. Frank Brusca, who’s a noted Stewart Scholar with special expertise in Stewart’s work on the U.S. 40 highway book, has done a tongue-in-cheek version of the battle map.
Here it is, for your enjoyment. Notice the lower left hand corner.
When we were in Gettysburg, it was very much like this. Americana!! Compare to “real” map 🙂
