The idea of Union General George B. McClellan to use a land-sea operation to attack Richmond was a brilliant operation. In the beginning of the conflict between Confederate General Robert E. Lee and General McClellan, McClellan took too much time for his operation to fully develop. One issue that caused a delay for Union forces was the Union's decision to lay siege to Confederate forces at Yorktown. Looking back the siege was ill advised in consideration of the delays it caused.
