McClellan examines the influences and political antecedents that shaped his behavior on the battlefield, behavior that so frustrated Lincoln and others in Washington that he was removed from his command soon after the Union loss at Antietam. Rather than take sides in the controversy, Ethan S. Rafuse finds in McClellan's politics and his desire to restore sectional harmony ample explanation for his actions. Rafuse sheds new light on the general who believed in the rule of reason and moderation, who sought a policy of conciliation with the South, and who wanted to manage the North's military resources in a way that would impose rational order on the battlefield. 606 $aStrategy$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aCommand of troops$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aGenerals$zUnited States$vBiography 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yCivil War, 1861-1865$xCampaigns 615 0$aStrategy$xHistory 615 0$aCommand of troops$xHistory 615 0$aGenerals 676 $a973.7/41/092 676 $aB 700 $aRafuse$b Ethan Sepp$f1968-$01807468 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910959285503321 996 $aMcClellan's war$94357188 997 $aUNINA
