I found a mistake in a book I was reading (1 Viewer)

I think the writer got a bit mixed up. In the box at the top right, the writer says that the July 1861 Battle of Manases was a Union victory, when both Battles of Manases(es?) were Confederate victories. The map does correctly mark that battle as Confederate victory through. But it’s kind of unfortunate because I think most people would be more likely to read and take in the text, but then just skim the map, vs people doing the reverse.

The Union won other major fights, but not early in the war when both the Manases battles took place
