Solution

The statement made by Union General George B. McClellan in his 1861 letter to his wife reveals that arrogance was one of his greatest flaws. His belief that he had become the "power of the land" and could become a "Dictator or anything else that might please me" after a small success shows a high level of self-importance and overconfidence, which are characteristics of arrogance.
