Revolutionary
War Era Maps of
Canada and the United States
This
CD contains 34 rare antique maps and descriptive pages representing
fascinating details about Canada and the United States during
the Revolutionary War in MrSid format. This format allows
you to see the entire map or drill down for the smallest details.
If you printed one of these maps at full size, it would be about
36"x36" or larger (way more than can fit on a computer
screen) so you can imagine how much detail they all have. (MrSID
software is included on the CD.)

The
table below shows the description and a small image of each
map on this incredible history CD.
