""George B. McClellan: The Man Who Saved The Union"" is a comprehensive biography that delves into the life and career of one of the most controversial figures in American history. Written by historian H. J. Eckenrode, the book explores the complex personality of George B. McClellan, who served as a general in the Union Army during the American Civil War.The book begins by tracing McClellan's early life, including his upbringing in a prominent Pennsylvania family and his education at West Point. It then follows his military career, from his service in the Mexican-American War to his appointment as commander of the Army of the Potomac during the Civil War.Eckenrode examines McClellan's leadership style, which was characterized by caution and a reluctance to engage in battle. He also explores the political tensions that surrounded McClellan, including his strained relationship with President Lincoln and his clashes with other Union generals.Despite these controversies, Eckenrode argues that McClellan played a crucial role in preserving the Union during the Civil War. He credits McClellan with developing the Army of the Potomac into a formidable fighting force and with devising a strategy that ultimately led to the Union victory at Antietam.Throughout the book, Eckenrode draws on a wealth of primary sources, including McClellan's personal letters and diaries, to provide a nuanced and detailed portrait of this complex historical figure. ""George B. McClellan: The Man Who Saved The Union"" is a must-read for anyone interested in the Civil War or in the life of one of its most enigmatic leaders.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
