Scope and Content Note

This collection consists of a map titled Carte de France et Des Frontieres which was printed at Base Printing Plant, 29^th Engineers, US Army in 1918. The map is also labeled “No. 11 Longwy” and shows portions of Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, and Meurthe-et-Moselle in Europe. This topographical map shows train routes and water routes and identifies cities, towns, and villages. The map was created during World War I by the Topographic Division of the American Expeditionary Force (AEF) due to a lack of adequate maps of the area before they arrived. This map most likely accompanied a military officer during the last year of the war.
