 Description: It was the spring of 1865, and the Civil War was almost over. Petersburg had been under siege since June, 1864. At this little Virginia city Robert E. Lee's half-starved, half-clad army -“Lee's Miserables,” they called themselves, in allusion to Victor Hugo's somber classic -had checked the advance toward Richmond, the Confederate capital, of the Union commander Ulysses S. Grant, who was determined to end the war by capturing the nerve center of southern resistance.
