Atlas of the American Civil War

The War Between the States was America's bloodiest war, and now in John Carl Nelson's fascinating Atlas of the American Civil War: Secession, this major upheaval in American history comes alive as never before. Based on GIS technology, Secession gives you a look inside the slave states as never before seen. From Lincoln's election to the beginning of the war, Secession shows the details of the secession movement within the slave states. You can follow conventions and see how sentiment changed after Fort Sumter. The third in an exciting new series of progressively more detailed maps and atlases, Secession concentrates on the details, letting you see and experience the War Between the States with a new perspective. Each slave state has census maps, election maps, maps showing votes in the conventions, and referendum maps, all by individual counties. Perfect for any student of American history, Civil War buff, reenactor, or anyone who wants a more detailed immersion into the past, Secession offers a surprisingly unique exploration that is as educational as it is exciting.
