Description

An American map titled "Rand McNally War Map of the French Front, Southern Section." The map of France, Germany, and Switzerland shows the farthest advance of the German army in 1914 and the battle line as of September 1917. Annotations, in red ink, show the positions of the 69th Infantry Brigade and the 138th Infantry headquarters, as well as, troop movement from Docelles through Bussang. Many other areas in France and Germany are also circled, including markings south of Nancy. An index on the back shows the location of towns, canals, forests, forts, lakes, mountains, and rivers in France and Germany. Handwriting on the back reads: "Southern Section." The smaller inset map shows a larger overview of the war zone along with battle lines. Donated by C.B. Forester.
