Why was general george mcclellan’s leadership a disadvantage for the north during the civil war? a. he had too little experience. b. he had no formal training. c. he was too cautious. d. he was too eager to fight.

The correct answer is C) He was too cautious.

During his reign as commander of the Union Army, General George B. McCllelan was constantly inefficient. One of the major reasons why was his miscalculation of the size and power of the Confederate Army. McCllelan often predicted that the Confederate Army had many more soldiers and weapons than the Union troops he was controlling. However, this was rarely the case. Due to these fears of a stronger Confederate Army, McCllelan failed to attack Confederate troops when their backs were against the wall. This failure to act ultimately lead to McCllelan being fired and replaced by Ulysses S. Grant.
