Description

La bataille de Drewry's Bluff se déroula le 15 mai 1862, dans le Comté de Chesterfield , durant la Guerre de Sécession. Cinq canonnières de la marine américaine, y compris l'USS Monitor, remontèrent le fleuve James à la vapeur pour examiner les défenses de Richmond , la capitale des confédérés. Ils rencontrèrent des obstacles submergés et des tirs précis et mortels des batteries confédérés. La marine fédérale dut battre en retraite.
En mars 1862, les nordistes lancent une offensive visant à se rendre maîtres de Richmond, capitale confédérée. Cette offensive est connue sous le nom de Campagne de la Péninsule.
