Alexander Hamilton also corresponded with President Abraham Lincoln regarding Gen. George McClellan's Peninsular Campaign during the American Civil War. Hamilton encouraged Lincoln to not press McClellan for quick results during his careful and ultimately unsuccessful siege of Richmond, Virginia(History channel "The Civil War Today" app - letter dated 11 June 1862 from New York). He references his time with Wellington as authority to judge military strategy.
