Description:
By age 35, General George B. McClellan (1826-1885), designated the "Young Napoleon" was the commander of all the Northern armies. He forged the Army of the Potomac into a formidable battlefield foe, and fought the longest and largest campaign of the time as well as the single bloodiest baffle in the nation's history. In 1864 he challenged Abraham Lincoln as the Democratic candidate for the presidency.
Expand description
Neither an indictment nor an apologia, this biography draws entirely on primary sources to create a splendidly incisive portrait of this contradictory general who, for the first eighteen months of the conflict, held the fate of the union in his unsteady hands.
