The Seven Days battle was actually a series of battles fought in Virginia from June 25 to July 1, 1862. Engagements took place during this time at Oak Grove, Beaver Dam Creek, Gaines' Mill, Garnette's and Golding's Farm, Savages Station, Glendale and Malvern Hill. It was the culmination of Union general George B. McClellan's failed Peninsula Campaign which he hoped would end with the capture of the Confederate capital at Richmond. Over these seven days both armies combined would suffer 36,000 casualties with over 5000 killed.
As a side note, the Seven Days was General Robert E. Lee's first major test as commander of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia, having taken command a little over 3 weeks earlier.
