The Civil War started shortly after Lincoln's innaugural speech condemning secession from the Union. Allan Pinkerton, President Lincoln, and Maj. Gen. John A. McClernand (pictured left to right) were among the military leaders who helped lead the 1862 Battle of Antietam, one of the bloodiest battles of the war.
