THE NEW YORK TIMES, May 23, 1862  The front page is dominated by a very nice Civil War map headed: "FARRAGUT'S NAVAL OPERATIONS ON THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER. Map Showing the Situation of Vicksburg, Miss., Indicating the Cotton Plantations in the Vicinity & Exhibiting the Topography of the Region." The balance of the ftpg. is taken up with various Civil War reports. This has just the outer leaves, meaning just 4 of 8 pages and defective as such, but still a great item for display with the nice front page map. Lightly toned throughout, otherwise in nice condition.
