| 520 | 8 | |a In the Peninsula Campaign of spring 1862, Union general George B. McClellan failed in his plan to capture the Confederate capital and bring a quick end to the conflict. But the campaign saw something new in the war - the participation of African Americans in ways that were critical to the Union offensive.
