Having studied the American Civil war and the War for Independence I have drawn the conclusion that they were so similar as there was a very large portion of our country who wanted to remain British citizens, so really, this was our second civil war as we weren't only fighting British regulars, we were fighting our own family members and our neighbors as well. I believe that is why Americans still care about the royal family and consume UK television so much. We, in our hearts, still part of the commonwealth of the UK and since WWI have spent our money and blood to fight along side of the UK and the former colonies. We, the former pieces of the British empire have fought shoulder to shoulder in WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam and every one of the former British Colonies came with us to Afghanistan and Iraq. And until our current administration turned his back on our closest allies in our country's disgraceful withdrawl from Afghanistan last year we have never let one another down. Only hope we can repair the damage done. It was comforting to know American would never go alone to any conflict. Now things just aren't so clear.

One hell of a battle. Fitz John Porter deserves respect for his actions in this campaign; one of the best defensive commanders of the Union. Mechanicsville, Gaines Mill and Malvern Hill, two victorys and a well fought defeat against Lee of all people. If he hadn't been wrongly accused and courtmartialed for the failure of others and his friendship with McClellan, he probably would have given Lee more bloody noses.

Thats an interested story!

Edwin Porter Alexander's memoirs are a must read. Extremely intelligent and introspective look at every battle he was in and he was not afraid to criticize certain generals. Although Stonewall has an excellent reputation, his performance in The Seven Days battles were substandard. Exhausted mentally and physically from his valley campaign, he was uncharacteristically sluggish and late. Lee was very frustrated with his and other's performance during these running battles. I believe Lee asked way too much of his men and generals, leading to confusing tactical movements and wrong turns. It culminated with a horrendous assault at Malvern Hill. Yes, Lee did drive the Union army back, but at a frightful cost. There was only so many of these bloody assaults the confederates could make.

This is historical modern art. The whole channel and video execution.

That is a foolish idea. The migrants where not responsible for reasons oor the course of the american civil war. That was the solely responsibility of the US Politics. The South was highly motivated to defend Slavery by gaining Independence f and the North to provide the split of the Country. Both sides raised massive armed forces and fought to the bloody end. Even many migrants joined the Union army and less the Confederates Side they were Americans and took their side on this struggle

A correction. McClellan was actually at Porter's HQ when reinforcements were requested. His escort from the 1st NY Cavalry record several trips, and McClellan moving around the field frequently. One of them gives the reason for the delay in sending Slocum - McClellan had left Franklin at GHQ with instructions to be ready to send Slocum over if needed. However, Franklin was so worried about Magruder's attack towards Garnett's Hill that he left GHQ to supervise the fighting. This meant that the order from McClellan (with Porter) to send Slocum over wasn't received. Eventually, McClellan rode back to the Trent House and gave the order personally to Slocum.

Great video. Having grown up in this area of Hanover, in the my younger day (late 50's to early 70's) I've spent many a day just riding around and reading the markers. We hunted relics in the woods and fields in this end of county. In places you could hardly stick a shovel in the ground and not turn up a Minnie Ball or (usually) an Eagle button. They lay on top of the ground after a spring plowing...probably still do, but it's been a long time since I hunted there. My Uncle still lives on the old home place, about a mile from the "Grapevine Bridge" over the Chickhominy. It is rumored that the desire to know more about the battles led to more than one "midnight history lesson" being conducted by young men and women exploring the parks after dark. I of course know nothing of this. Just rumors you understand. 😇

This was the battle that gave Lee the idea, just over a year later, that Pickett's (Lee's) Charge was a good idea, if properly organized and timed. His next attempt at a grand charge was Malvern Hill. That was a mess. If Kearney had been in Union command, instead of McClellan, Richmond would have fallen in days. But... McClellan.

After the Battle of Gaines Mill, the hospitals in Richmond swelled with wounded Confederate and Union Troops. Over the next several months, many of the wounded would die of their wounds or disease instigated from their wounds and would be buried at Oakwood Cemetery. Some of these men - men fortunate enough to have their final resting places marked - include John T. Young, James Crowder Jones, Albert Polk Brown, John J. Patton, and countless others. There is also the grave of George Doss who, though his grave isn’t marked today, had his grave feature in one of the iconic photographs of the American Civil War; that of Oakwood Cemetery and the countless rows of graves. George Doss was a member of the 11th Alabama, was wounded at Gaines Mill, and eventually died in one of the hospitals in Richmond. If people come to visit Richmond, I’d highly recommend visiting Oakwood Cemetery and paying respect these men and others buried there.

@@JoeOvercoat In all fairness to Lee, Confederate strategy dictated that he protect Richmond. His operations in the Seven Days battles were rather poor, but overall he read McClellan correctly and drove him away from Richmond. That allowed Lee to shift the theater of operations to northern Virginia and to win another victory at Bull Run (his best battle, in my opinion). That opened the way for Lee to invade Maryland and capture a 12,000 man army at Harpers Ferry. Not at all a bad summer’s work. So I’d say we have to call the Seven Days a strategic victory for Lee. The problem came right after he captured Harpers Ferry, when he chose to fight at Antietam for no discernible military reason. In fact, Antietam was nearly a mirror to Gaines Mill in terms of numbers and position...how Lee thought he could win a meaningful victory in what was essentially Porter’s position is beyond me, but it began a string of ill-considered bloodbaths the confederacy, as you rightly note, could not afford.

@@WarhawkYT Porter’s corps, which fought essentially unsupported by their commanding general, inflicted heavy casualties on Lee’s army the whole day before withdrawing under cover of nightfall. They were able to go on fighting for six more days, skillfully undertaking McClellan’s orders to withdraw. On the seventh day, Porter and his corps participated in the brutal thrashing of Lee’s army at Malvern hill. What we may think of McClellan’s rationale for his “change of base” is another story, but the Union army was not beaten in the Seven Days.

The problem Lincoln had not other general at all in that time. The future star generals were in the Western Theater (Grant, Sherman, Thomas) or in the Trans Mississippi Theater.

Funny but the highest % experienced, skilled generals were at the Confederat side in the first 2 years mainly at the Eastern Theater. It may say the future star union generals learnt in the battle field from blood, mistakes, dead soldiers in the Western theaters. I think Grant learnt from his HUGE mistake in Shiloh to forget (modern words) any risk analysis of his enemy. Grant (He learnt about Julius Ceasar in West Point or not?) built double fortification at Vicksburg perhaps he remembered to his risk analysis mistake of Shiloh. Lincoln had almost only Mc Clallen for an wholeTheater leader, to organize an army in 1861. (But it is very interesting first Mc Clallen did not want to organize corps, instead of corps he wanted to manage 15 divisions from a headquarter and Lincoln sqeezed him to accept the corp system.) Halleck (he replaced Fremont) was a student in the West with his subordinates that time. The first vave of the Western Theater student generals were not too successful as Sigel or Pope in the Eastern Theater. Nobody knows if Curtiss had not written early manifesto about his abolutionist plan in Arkansas he could have better Army leader in the Eastern Theater. ( Fremont wasreplaced for this earlier so Curtiss would have known, Lincoln thought this too early.)
