Battles of the Civil War - Satin Laminated - 36"W × 23"H

Created originally as a supplement to the April 2005 National Geographic Magazine, Battles of the Civil War is rich with detail, showing battle sites with numerous call-outs describing specific battles as well as dates and battle routes. Insets highlight ''Turning Points of the War,'' ''Battle for the Capitols,'' as well as battle death tolls.

The map is encapsulated in heavy-duty 1.7 mil laminate which makes the paper much more durable and resistant to the swelling and shrinking caused by changes in humidity. Laminated maps can be framed without the need for glass, so the frames can be much lighter and less expensive. Satin Lamination features glare-reducing qualities that provide a soft sheen. A satin finish is best suited for backdrop prints and displays receiving indirect, bright lighting.
