In "Across Five Aprils" by Irene Hunt, Shad believes General McClellan is overly cautious and hesitant, which hampers the Union's military effectiveness.

General George McClellan during the Civil War, General Douglas MacArthur during the Korean War, and now, General McChrystal. McClellan was an arrogant, but brilliant general, replaced by the drunken idiot Ulysses S. Grant. MacArthur led the fight to defeat the Japanese in World War II. McChrystal is a supremely intelligent, extremely skilled warrior who had the misfortune and, perhaps, bad judgement, to speak his mind in front of a reporter from Rolling Stone. Whether he was right or wrong is not under debate. In our free country, you're not allowed to think the President is a dunce.

In "Across Five Aprils," personification is used to give human qualities to non-human things, helping create vivid imagery. For example, Jethro's decision to cut the tree represents the end of his innocence and childhood. The wind is described as "whispering secrets," adding a sense of mystery and depth to the narrative.

Abraham Lincoln had a complicated relationship with General George B. McClellan, whom he appointed as commander of the Army of the Potomac. While Lincoln appreciated McClellan's organizational skills and ability to train troops, he often grew frustrated with McClellan's hesitance to engage the enemy and take decisive action during the Civil War. Lincoln believed that McClellan's cautious approach hindered the Union's progress, leading to tensions between the two. Ultimately, Lincoln replaced McClellan due to these concerns, seeking a more aggressive military leader.

General McClellan's major tactical errors during the Civil War included his hesitance to engage decisively with Confederate forces, exemplified by his cautious approach during the Peninsular Campaign, which allowed Confederate General Robert E. Lee to consolidate his troops. Additionally, his overestimation of enemy strength often led to missed opportunities for aggressive action. McClellan's failure to exploit advantages, such as during the Battle of Antietam, further contributed to his reputation as overly cautious and indecisive, ultimately affecting the Union's strategic momentum.
