Battle of Droop Mountain map

This is a United States War Department map of the Droop Mountain battlefield, including positions of the Union and Confederate armies. The Battle occurred on November 6, 1863, with the Union force led by William W. Averell defeating a Confederate Force led by John Echols. The map's orientation is somewhat "upside down", as Hillsborough is actually northeast of Droop Mountain.
