Note
2nd edition published with additions, by Magnus. Stevenson lists a second issue by Bachmann (showing smoke over the Manassas battlefield) but not this second edition by Magnus. Many towns and battlefields have been added, especially around Richmond, Petersburg, and Fredericksburg. The lithographic printing is not as good as the Bachmann edition and the color yellow which Bachmann used effectively to show topography is not employed to much advantage here. Relief shown by shadings and pictorially. Showing battlefields, military fortifications and battleships.

Note
A group of five full color maps and a view of the U.S. Capital, plus two female figures. The largest map is the Complete Map of the Rail Roads..., which shows the eastern United States with all the railroads in operations and projected. This is a Civil War map in its focus, and typically Magnus in its packing together several maps and views. Another edition, not listed, adds soldiers to the left and right of the main map, illustrating Hardee's tactics (of fighting). The large map is entered in 1859, and the whole production is entered in 1861.

Another Magnus small pocket map of New York City. Folded into black paper covers 8.5x6 with "Complete Map of the Cities of Brooklyn, Williamsburgh, and A Part of New York" printed in golden yellow. We am guessing at several of the words in the cover title - it is very worn. Haskell does not list this exact title, but several that are similar.
