Credit: A Wikimedia Commons file named Wilderness May5.png that has been modified by TwoScarsUp. The modification is simply a crop eliminating the bottom half of the file so that the viewer focuses only on the Orange Turnpike (northern) portion of the battle. Map compares favorably with chapter 4 (beginning on page 145) of The Battle of the Wilderness May 5-6, 1864, by Gordon C. Rhea. The original author is User:Hlj, and the crop was by TwoScarsUp. The original was drawn in Adobe Illustrator CS5 by Hal Jespersen. Graphic source file is available at http://www.posix.com/CWmaps/
