Corps Crossed Landing Vicinity Virginia


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the bustling activity at Varina Landing on the James River in Virginia during the aftermath of the American Civil War. The scene, dated between 1861 and 1869, depicts several ships anchored at the landing, where General Ord's 18th Army Corps crossed the James River in 1864. The Corps, under the command of Union General John G. Parke, made their way across the river to join forces with General Ulysses S. Grant in his successful assault on Petersburg, a strategic Confederate stronghold. The crossing at Varina Landing marked a turning point in the war, as it allowed the Union Army to bypass the Confederate defenses and advance towards Richmond, the Confederate capital. The ships in the foreground, laden with supplies and troops, played a crucial role in the Union's victory in this pivotal campaign. The peaceful waters of the James River, dotted with the sails of the Union fleet, contrast sharply with the turbulent history of the region, making for a poignant reminder of the significant events that unfolded on its shores.
