The Peninsula Campaign Of 1862 Yorktown To

George B. McClellan got closer to Richmond than any previous Union general by a bold amphibious landing, but lost his advantage due to his own indecision and Robert E. Lee's superior generalship. The essays in this volume on the campaign include ones by Gary Lash, William J. Miller, Steven Newton, Robert O'Neill and Steven Woodworth.
