The Great Battles of the Civil War - 1994 Peninsula Campaign 1-9 was released on: USA: 1994
The two objectives of Confederate General Robert E. Lee during the Union's Peninsula campaign was to protect Richmond, and destroy the retreating forces of Union General George B. McClellan. The former goal was completed, the goal of destroying McClellan's army was not reached. The Union forces had a good rear guard unit and Lee's was unable to launch coordinated attacks on McClellan's army as it retreated and held firm at Harrison's Landing.
General McClellan believed he had good reasons for his ideas that Washington DC was set about to damage his plans for the Peninsula campaign. He resented his battle plans being questioned, having his army reorganized against his will, and to read in newspapers about his removal from the general in chief title he had. From that point on, he began his campaign of blaming Washington DC for his failures in the Peninsula campaign.
