the Battle of Globe Tavern

"Warren may find an opportunity to do more than I had expected."
--General Ulysses S Grant

Eager to break the stagnated siege at Petersburg, Grant plots a two-pronged attack around city. He leads the northern pincer, while General Meade is left to direct the southern pincer against Lee's supply line--the Weldon Railroad. The task of stopping Meade from destroying the tracks falls upon P.G.T Beauregard and A.P Hill.
