Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Map of battlefield core and study areas.

The ABPP extended the Study Area to Quarantine Point on the Mississippi River, where Farragut rallied his squadron after the battle of Forts Jackson and St. Philip, and then steamed toward the City of New Orleans. The boundary also indicates the route taken by retreating Confederate defenders toward Camp Moore north of the city.

The 1993 Core Area around the historic district of New Orleans was removed as there was no documented fighting in this location. The ABPP added two new Core Areas along Farragut's approach route to illustrate the locations of artillery duels between Confederate defenders and the Federal Navy.
