Large Scale War Maps

In Atlas Form, 16 Pages, 131⁄2 x 21 Inches. 12 Maps, Printed in 6 Colors

THE WESTERN FRONT

A complete and comprehensive series of colored maps showing the entire area of the western battle-front in France drawn on a large scale-five miles to the inch-with red lines indicating the position of the Allied armies at the time of going to press (October 3, 1918) and other red lines indicating the farthest advance of the Germans, each in a distinctive character. The large scale on which each map is drawn has made it possible to print the name of every town and village in clear, legible type so that it can be read with the utmost ease. The maps show every town, village, hamlet, naval arsenal, fort, redoubt, battery, aircraft depot, fortified town, mountain pass, wireless station, railway, and canal. Altitudes are given at frequent intervals, being indicated by the popular layer system of coloring. This method, which has been universally approved, consists of showing the elevations in twelve different colors and tints. For instance, deep brown indicates 1,100 to 1,200 meters (3,609-3,937 feet), while a lighter brown indicates 1,000 to 1,100 meters (3,281-3,609).

Surface configuration is largely the key to events in the theaters of war. Rivers, mountains, and forests are the natural strategic barriers. Mountain passes with their highways and railways are the natural gateways. Only maps which show these clearly can give you a correct idea of the relative value of a gain or loss of territory. The official American and Foreign Government maps form the bases on which these maps were made. Every contour and location represents the work of Government surveyors and cartographers. Accuracy, therefore, is assured, and thoroughness of detail is guaranteed by observations and tests.

OTHER MAPS IN THE OUTLOOK ATLAS

In addition to the large-scale maps of the western battle-front above described, which
are printed in three sections, each section occupying a double page, are the following:

ARMY MAP OF THE UNITED STATES
On the front cover of the Atlas is a map of the United States showing the
locations of camps and cantonments, officers' training camps, aviation fields,
Army schools, etc.-also the flags of the Allied nations in color.

GENERAL MAP OF THE WESTERN FRONT
Two pages are occupied by a war map of the western front, which is a com-
plete one-sheet map of this area. It is made on a scale of 10 miles to the
inch and extends west to Ashford, England, north to Antwerp, Belgium,
east to Frankfort, Germany, and south to Orleans, France.

MAP OF THE ITALIAN FRONT

This double-page map is engraved on a scale of 10 miles to the inch. It is exceedingly complete and is invaluable in following the news from this region. It extends north to the German boundary, east beyond Laibach, south to Bologna, west to Milan.

MAP OF NORTHWESTERN RUSSIA This is an entirely new map of that part of Russia in Europe now figuring in the public prints. It includes the towns that have sprung into prominence during the present war and since the Allied intervention. All the railways, including the one recently built to Alexandrovsk, on the Arctic Ocean, are shown on this map. Canals, forts, and other important details are given, while racial divisions are indicated in red. The detail of the northern sector now occupied by the Allies is particularly complete.

NEW MAP OF THE WORLD

On this map the colonial possessions of each country are shown in the same,
color as the mother countries. Steamship lines with distances via the Panama
Canal are given in blue, and other routes in red, so that the comparisons may
be easily made. Principal through railways, wireless telegraph stations,
and submarine cables are also indicated.

MAP OF NORTHERN ASIA, EMBRACING
SIBERIA, MONGOLIA, AND JAPAN

This map clearly shows the route of the Trans-Siberian Railway, the main
highway between Japan and Russia, connecting Vladivostok, Harbin, and
Petrograd. All stations along this important line as well as in other regions
are given in great detail. All former Russian possessions in Asia are also
included in detail.

MAP OF CENTRAL AND WESTERN EUROPE This map shows political boundaries in separate colors and is valuable in showing the relations of the several fronts to each other and to the neutral countries. All railways, canals, and principal cities and towns are shown.
