Gen. McClellan was in command during the Pennisular Campaign that included a few battles and some that didn't happen. Williamsburg, Yorktown, Drewey's Bluff, Hannover Courthouse, Battle of Seven Pines, and Seven Days Battle. His command culminated in the Battle of Antietam. Soon after the battle, President Lincoln visited Gen. McClellan at the battle field and annonced his replacement. In 1864, McClellan ran against President Lincoln, thus his only political battle. General McClellan was a cautious general and tended to avoid battles. But he was responsible for training the Union army that would continue to have an impact on the battles that followed.
