From Internet:
On September 17, 1862 the armies of Generals George McClellan and Robert E. Lee fought to a bloody stalemate at the Battle of Antietam near Sharpsburg, MD. On September 18, Lee ordered the Confederate army to withdraw from the battlefield and retreat back to Virginia.
Probably saved many soldiers' lives.
Did Lee show good leadership in retreating after the battle at Antietam?
