1918 Map of Vicksburg

About this map

The city of Vicksburg and its strategic river setting dominate this landscape just before the end of the Great War. The river geography is particularly complex here, showing the Yazoo River Diversion Canal and the remnants of Grants Canal near De Soto Island. The terrain transitions from the alluvial bottomlands of the Mississippi River to the high bluffs where the Vicksburg National Military Park preserves the siege lines.
