Approximately 3 years. The Battle of Yorktown in the American Civil War was fairly early in the war and mostly insignificant. It was fought between the dates of April 5th through May 4th, 1862. Robert E. Lee surrendered the Confederate Army on April 9th, 1865, though the last battle was fought on May 13th.
