Why did General George B McClellan decide to make Harrison's Landing his new base of operations in 1862?

At the end of June 1862, General McClellan decided to retreat to Harrison's Landing on the James River. There the US Navy was better able to provide the army with better assistance. A Navy flotilla led by Commander John Rodgers provided fire support for McClellan's troops as they took up positions at Malvern Hill on June 30, 1862. It was there on July 1st that the last battle of the Peninsula was fought. This would be the last major confrontation in the failed Peninsula campaign.

In what major way did General George B. McClellan demonstrate the value of joint army navy operations?

When he was still the Union's general in chief, George B. McClellan demonstrated his confidence in the value of joint army and navy operations. Previously all the planning on the capture of Richmond was an army operation. McClellan saw the value of the operational strategy with the army and navy working together. The major demonstration of this was the Peninsula campaign of 1862. Not only would the US Navy transport troops and supplies to eastern Virginia, but using their gunboats, provide artillery support for the Army of the Potomac during the Peninsula campaign.

General mcclellan suprised general lee at?

Antietam NEW RESPONDENT. As at the time of Antietam Lee was aware that McClellan knew his plan of operation and nevertheless decided to give battle, we cannot say that such a surprise had taken place. I am of the opinion that McClellan surprised Lee at the time of the Battle of the Seven Days, during the its final phases, when McClellan succeeded in retreating the Army of Potomac from the position of Savage Station up to behind the White Oak Swamp Creek and then after a risky "flank march" occupying the strong position of Malvern Hill. The movement had been so well conceived and carried out that Lee was prey of the "Fog of War" for about 24 hours and could not timely provide for the necessary countermeasures which would most likely led to the annihilation of the Army of Potomac.

Who was the winning general for the North in the Civil War?

Lincoln was of course the Constitutional Commander in Chief. Politically he had two Secretaries of War in his cabinet, the corrupt Simon Cameron, who had to be replaced by Edwin Stanton. He had several Generals in Chief in command of the Army, the first being the man in charge when Lincoln got to Washington, who had been General in Chief since 1839, and on active duty with the Army since 1808. This was Winfield Scott, "Old Fuss and Feathers", who was an authentic hero of both the War of 1812 and the Mexican War. But Scott was now 75 years old, weighed 400 pounds and was riddled with gout, and tended to drop off to sleep in the midst of conversations. If he tried to mount a horse he had to be hoisted onto the back of that long-suffering animal with a block and tackle. A stingy Congress had failed to provide any system of retirement for military officers, and the pay was too low to save anything for retirement, so officers continued to serve until they died of old age (and younger officers only got promoted then too). So, Scott was still in the Army, after 53 years. Scott was continually embarrassed and humiliated by the commander of the main Yankee field army near Washington, George McClellan, "The Young Napoleon". This eventually caused Scott to resign in 1862, and McClellan was appointed General in Chief in his place, while continuing to command the Army of the Potomac. After a few months his insolent and insulting behavior toward Lincoln, combined with his absolute refusal to move his army against the Rebels, caused Lincoln to remove McClellan as General in Chief, though he still commanded the field Army of the Potomac until after Antietam. As the new General in Chief Lincoln brought in a general from the west, who had enjoyed some success in Tennessee, Henry W. Halleck, "Old Brains". In reality most of Halleck's success had been due to the work of his subordinate Ulysses Grant, for which Halleck stole the credit. Halleck proved to be a disappointment as General in Chief, and was replaced by Grant early in 1864. Grant kept the job through the rest of the war, and until he was elected president in 1868.
