The Seven Days. This event featuring a roundtable discussion will mark the 150th anniversary of "the grand campaign," Gen. George McClellan's mammoth offensive to capture Richmond in the spring of 1862. A quarter-million men took part, more than in any other Civil War operation. One-quarter were dead, wounded or missing when it ended. The Army of the Potomac fought what was renamed the Army of the Northern Virginia when Robert E. Lee took command after the removal of several other Rebel generals. The Peninsula Campaign began in mid-March. The largest fleet in our history carried troops and equipment from Washington and Alexandria to Fort Monroe, at the tip of the Virginia Peninsula between the York and James Rivers. Its climax was the Seven Days, June 25 to July 1, seven battles with distinctive names but almost continuous fighting until the final struggle. The distinguished British soldier-historian J.F.C. Fuller considered these engagements among the fifty-one decisive military campaigns in western history.
Lee's desire to fight was greater than McClellan's. His army suffered more casualties, because it so often attacked while defending Richmond. There were eerie premonitions of Gettysburg including Jeb Stuart's ride around the entire Union army, and Lee's frontal assault against massed infantry and artillery on the final day. He failed to destroy his opponent, but drove McClellan away from a position so close to the capital that Yanks could hear the city's church bells. The campaign lifted Southern morale after the defeat at Shiloh and the capture of New Orleans. It was the beginning of Lee's rise to fame , and it almost led to European recognition of the confederacy. It started Americans down the road toward Antietam and the Emancipation Proclamation, a "hard war" against Confederate civilians as well as soldiers, and a nation that would be changed almost beyond recognition.
Seating is Limited. Light refreshments will be served. There is no cost.
All attendees must RSVP by June 13th.
