In the middle of 1862, Virginia was the focal point of intense military activity during the American Civil War, particularly with the Seven Days Battles from June 25 to July 1. This series of conflicts marked the climax of the Peninsula Campaign, where Union General George B. McClellan attempted to capture Richmond, the Confederate capital. The battles resulted in significant casualties and ultimately forced the Union Army to retreat. The Confederate forces, led by General Robert E. Lee, successfully defended the city, bolstering Southern morale.
