Why didn't federal general Halleck attack lee?
Halleck himself was never in a position to attack Lee. When he was appointed General-in-Chief in July 1862, he summoned McClellan back to Washington and ordered him to attack Lee in the Shenandoah. Lee defeated part of the Union army before McClellan was able to reach the spot. Next came the unexpected Union win at Antietam, but Halleck and the whole of Lincoln's cabinet criticised McClellan for failing to pursue and destroy Lee's army, and McClellan was replaced. Halleck then supervised the two further failed attacks on Lee (Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville), and the successful one at Gettysburg. The next campaign involving Lee was not till May 1864, by which time Halleck had been replaced.
What caused Union General George B McClellan to be confident when he learned Confederate General Robert E. Lee was now in charge of the defense of Richmond?
It seems that Union General George B. McClellan learned that Confederate General Joseph Johnston was wounded at Fair Oaks and Jefferson Davis replaced him with Robert E. Lee. In McClellan's writings about the war he indicated that General Lee would not be a problem. He believed Lee was timid and lacked experience. This idea may have been the result of the time that McClellan's forces pushed Confederates out of western Virginia early in the war. At the time Lee was in charge of Rebels seeking to retain western Virginia but failed. There is no doubt that McClellan knew of Lee before the war.Lee of course had a stellar career before the war and was once the superintendent of West Point. Nevertheless, in June of 1862, McClellan did not fear Lee as Johnston's replacement.
