President Lincoln & General George B. McClellan in the general's tent at Antietam, 3rd October 1862. Dissatisfied with General McClellan’s non-responsiveness after Antietam Abraham Lincoln went out to Maryland in October to meet with him. McClellan had a habit of making the commander in chief come to him, which Lincoln tolerated but also noted as a sign of the officer’s arrogance. Photographed by Alexander Gardner.
