By 1862 most Americans had realised that the Civil War was failing to be brought to a conclusion. However, General George B. McClellan aimed to avoid this by capturing Richmond, the Confederate capital, and end the war in a single campaign.

Both sides battled with ferocity, yet failed to take full advantage of the opportunity to change the face of the war.
