About this map

Shiloh National Battlefield dominates the southern landscape of this Hardin County survey, preserving the hallowed ground where one of the Civil War's most pivotal engagements took place. The terrain detail reveals the complex network of ravines and watercourses like Snake Creek Canal and Dill Br that dictated troop movements, alongside solemn landmarks such as the Shiloh National Cem and the Shiloh Confederate Burial Trench Cem.

To the east, the Tennessee River flows through the flooded reaches of Kentucky Lake, past Diamond Island and into the riverfront at Savannah. While the town of Crump and the heights of New Hope show modern residential patterns, the map remains anchored by historical sites like Bloody Pond and Rhea Springs, offering a precise view of how the modern Tennessee landscape rests upon its 19th-century history.
