One of the giants of Arkansas History, John McClellan towered over the Senate like no other Arkansan before or since. Working with fellow Arkansas Senator J. William Fulbright and an influential contingent of Arkansas congressmen, McClellan brought many accomplishments to the state and the nation. His rise to power began with a modest law firm in Sheridan.
