Map of the Battle of Gettysburg showing positions held July 1st & 3rd 1863

In this image Sneden compares troop locations during the first day of the battle with those on the third day. One obvious observation is that the Confederate forces have succeeded in pushing the Union line back to the more easily held hills south of the town.
Color coding indicates the location of Union and Confederate forces.
