Batallas de la Guerra Civil Americana se libraron entre el 12 de abril de 1861 y el 12 y 13 de mayo de 1865 en 19 estados, en su mayoría confederados (Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Luisiana, Maryland, Misisipi, Misuri, Carolina del Norte, Ohio, Pensilvania, Carolina del Sur, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia y Virginia Occidental), el Distrito de Columbia y seis territorios (Territorio de Arizona (también Arizona Confederado), Territorio de Colorado, Territorio de Dakota, Territorio Indio (actual Oklahoma), Territorio de Nuevo México y Territorio de Washington), así como compromisos navales. Virginia en particular fue escenario de muchas batallas importantes y decisivas. Estas batallas cambiarían la posición y la memoria histórica de Estados Unidos.

Algunas batallas tienen más de un nombre; por ejemplo, las batallas conocidas en el Norte como Batalla de Antietam y Segunda Batalla de Bull Run fueron denominadas Batalla de Sharpsburg y Batalla de Manassas, respectivamente, en el Sur. Esto se debía a que el Norte tendía a nombrar las batallas con el nombre de puntos de referencia (a menudo ríos o cuerpos de agua), mientras que el Sur nombraba las batallas con el nombre de ciudades cercanas.

Battles of the American Civil War by Theater and Year

Batallas clasificadas por CWSAC

El Programa de Protección del Campo de Batalla Estadounidense (ABPP, por sus siglas en inglés) se estableció dentro del Servicio de Parques Nacionales de los Estados Unidos para clasificar el estado de preservación de las tierras históricas del campo de batalla. En 1993, la Comisión Asesora sobre Sitios de Guerra Civil (CWSAC) informó al Congreso y a la ABPP sobre su extenso análisis de batallas y campos de batalla importantes. De las 8.000 ocasiones estimadas en las que ocurrieron hostilidades en la Guerra Civil estadounidense, esta tabla y artículos relacionados describen las 384 batallas que se clasificaron en el Informe sobre los campos de batalla de la Guerra Civil de la nación. Además del estado de preservación de la tierra del campo de batalla (no incluido en esta tabla), CWSAC clasificó la importancia militar de las batallas en cuatro clases, de la siguiente manera:

Clase A - Decisivo: Un compromiso general con los ejércitos sobre el terreno en que un comandante logró un objetivo estratégico vital. Tal resultado podría incluir una victoria indiscutible sobre el terreno o limitarse al éxito o la terminación de una ofensiva de campaña. Las batallas decisivas tuvieron un impacto directo y observable en la dirección, duración, conducta o resultado de la guerra.
Clase B - Mayor: Un compromiso de magnitud con ejércitos o divisiones sobre el terreno de los ejércitos en los que un comandante logró un objetivo estratégico importante en el contexto de una ofensiva de campaña en curso. Las batallas principales tuvieron un impacto directo y observable en la dirección, duración, conducta o resultado de la campaña.
Clase C – Formato: Un compromiso con divisiones o destacamentos de los ejércitos de campo en los que un comandante logró un objetivo de campaña limitado de reconocimiento, perturbación, defensa o ocupación. Las batallas formativas tuvieron una influencia observable en la dirección, duración o conducción de la campaña.
Clase D – Limitada: Un compromiso, típicamente implicando destacamentos de los ejércitos de campo, en los que un comandante logró un objetivo táctico limitado de reconocimiento, defensa o ocupación. Las batallas limitadas mantuvieron contacto entre los combatientes sin influencia observable en la dirección de la campaña.
