United States History I was put in the seat of General McClellan for the Battle of Antietam (also known as Sharpsburg) in the American Civil War. General Robert E. Lee's Special Order 191 was discovered by the Union and given to McClellan. This order gave the entire plan for the attack and students were to take the information and decide what they would have done if they were McClellan. Their works as commanders during the war were interesting to discuss.
