The Civil War in America: scene of operations in eastern Virginia, showing M'Clellan's present position, 1862. Map of '...an area of about 20, 000 square miles. About halfway between Richmond and the mouth of the Chickahominy lies the hilly country, where M'Clellan's army is now stationed...seven miles below Richmond, is Fort Darling, where the course of the river is obstructed to prevent the passage of the Federal gun-boats...Five lines of railroad radiate from [Richmond] the capital of Virginia. The Richmond and York River Railroad, which in times of peace connected the city with the aforesaid river, was the line by which M'Clellan supplied his army, and on which his head-quarters at White House were situated until his recent change of front and base of operations. His right wing at one time was extended so far as to rest on the Virginia Central Railway, a line running north from Richmond, just north of the point where it crosses the Chickahominy. This river and the White Oak Swamp, across which his army retreated, lie between the Richmond and York River Railway and the James River. On the south bank of this river...is City Point, where the Federal flotilla is now anchored. This is also the point where the Appomattox flows into the James'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
