| 520 | |a Bold, brash, and full of ambition, George Brinton McClellan seemed destined for greatness when he assumed command of all the Union armies before he was 35. It was not to be.

Rather than blaming McClellan for the Union's military losses, Rafuse attempts to understand his political thinking. | ||
