60 Second Ad Script :

Seven Days Battles

Union General George McClellan believed that if he could capture the Confederate capital of Richmond in 1862, he could quickly end the War.  He invaded Virginia and began marching toward the capital. 

Defending Richmond was the man destined to save the South time and time again... Robert E. Lee.  Lee had only been appointed commander of the Army of Northern Virginia days before but was given the important task of saving the Southern capital.

Unlike anything that the Yankees had witnessed before, Lee unleashed one attack after another on the Union army for seven straight days, driving them back to the James River and saving the capital of Richmond.  The brilliant leadership of Robert E. Lee had saved the Confederacy in what came to be known as the Seven Days Battles.
