Printed on linen-backed paper which folds into a red cloth cover.
Wood & Ortlepp's series of field intelligence maps, detailing all the towns and surrounds of the Orange Free State and Transvaal Republics, were used in the field by the British military during the Anglo-Boer War. The maps folded to pocket size for easy usage on horseback.
This map is of Mount Huxley and surrounds (including sections of Barkly West, Griqualand West, Postmasburg, Daniels Kuil), showing all roads, rivers, hills, pans, railways, telegraph lines, farm boundaries and fences, homesteads etc.
As these maps were compiled for urgent military use the publishers wisely added the disclaimer in the margin, "This map is not to be considered as absolutely accurate."
The map is complete and in very good condition.
