In this episode I look at the various issues that General McClellan had to deal with as he started off on his grand plan to invade Richmond by the back door. I look at the 1st month of the Peninsula Campaign as the Union Army started up that historical area only to be stopped by Yorktown. I also look at the various ways in which the Confederates did their best to stop the Union Army from an easy victory before finally deciding to make this the priority of the Confederacy on the Eastern Front in the late spring of 1862.
