The town was "easy to seize, and hard to hold", because of its topography: surrounded on three sides by high ground – Bolivar Heights to the west, Loudoun Heights to the south, and Maryland Heights to the east – and surrounded by the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers, anyone who controlled the heights controlled the city.
