General Robert E. Lee, recently appointed, made Richmond his last-stand against the approaching Union forces. Federal commander Maj. Gen. George B. McClellan found himself unexpectedly hammered by a newly aggressive, newly emboldened foe. For seven days, Lee planned ambitious attacks and launched them, one after another, hoping not just to drive Federals from the gates of Richmond but to obliterate them entirely.
