As we continue our road to the first Battle of Bull Run (Manassas), this episode features two battles. The first one, The Battle Of Pig Point, not really much happened as the Union gunboat USS Harriet Lane attempted to attack Confederate forces at Pig Point, but due to shallow water was unable to accomplish anything. That bring us to one of the first land battles in the war, The Battle Of Big Bethel. Confederate Col. John B. Magruder was sent down the Virginia peninsula to deter any advance on the state capital Richmond by Union troops based at the well-defended post of Fort Monroe, commanded by Maj Gen. Benjamin Butler. Lot's to go through in this one!
