5,650 (869 killed, 4,241 wounded, and 540 missing) ENTRY SUMMARY The Battle of Malvern Hill, fought on July 1, 1862, and the final engagement of the Seven Days’ Battles, resulted in a Confederate defeat, yet it still managed to halt Union general George B. McClellan‘s offensive up the Peninsula and against the Confederate capital at Richmond during the American Civil War (1861–1865). After a week of hard marching and maneuvering, the new Confederate commander, Robert E. Lee, decided to attack McClellan full-on at Malvern Hill, where the Union general had massed his artillery. His assault was piecemeal, however, and bloodily repelled, prompting Confederate general D. H. Hill to remark that “it was not war it was murder.”
