| Map depicting the campaigns of October and November 1776, in Manhattan, Westchester, and part of New Jersey, published only a few months after the conclusion of those campaigns. It shows the important cities, roads, hills, ponds, and rivers. The fortifications and movement of the american forces appear in blue, the British forces in red. Small illustrations of ships, accompanied by their names (Tartar, Phenix, and Roebuck) sail on the Hudson River just east of Terry Town. Numerous annotations throughout the map explain the location and movement of the armies, along with dates. |
