The author has compiled 421 maps in a chronological timeline which take the reader through the Gettysburg Campaign from June 3, 1863 thru July 14, 1863. Included with each map is explanatory or complimentary text. Of note, Laino includes some "alternate maps" for those facets of the battle in dispute -- four of them in fact, are provided for Vincent's approach to Little Round Top.
