This report is a history of the re-establishment and restoration of the historic fields and scene at Shiloh National Military Park and Cemetery. A documented map showing the physical condition of the Shiloh National Military Park and Cemetery area with emphasis on configuration and location of fields, roads, fences, and woods was desired by the Superintendent Alvoid Rector in 1862. This information was required to enable the Park to manage its resources and restore the vegetative cover, where practicable, to its appearance at the time of the battle. This report is a history of the re-establishment and restoration of the historic fields and scene.
