This is a beautiful relief map of the Battle of Gettysburg. The turn of the 20th century saw a number of expositions staged across the country, celebrating American achievements. In response to a directive from the Secretary of War, Emmor B. Cope, the Gettysburg National Park Commission engineer, and his assistants, constructed this relief map for an exhibit on the park mounted at the St. Louis Exposition in April 1904. It is an accurate representation of the 1863 battlefield landscape encompassing 24 square miles.
