Written by George Wilkes, editor of “Wilkes’ Spirit of the Times”. Contains his critical observations of McClellan’s military maneuvers. The publisher’s preface contained in the booklet indicates the contents of the booklet were part of a series by Wilke devoted to the review of McClellan and his battles, down to what Wilkes describes as “the unspeakably disgraceful battle of Antietam.” Wilkes was one of McClellan’s supporters at the outset of the war, but his conduct led him to become quite critical.
