"Civil War Warships, 1855-1883" is the second in the five-volume US
Navy Warships encyclopedia set. This valuable reference lists the
ships of the U.S. Navy and Confederate Navy during the Civil War
and the years immediately following - a significant period in the
evolution of warships, the use of steam propulsion, and the
development of ordnance. "Civil War Warships "provides a wealth and
variety of material not found in other books on the subject and
will save the reader the effort needed to track down information in
multiple sources.
Each ship's size and time and place of construction are listed
along with particulars of naval service. The author provides
historical details that include actions fought, damage sustained,
prizes taken, ships sunk, and dates in and out of commission as
well as information about when the ship left the Navy, names used
in other services, and its ultimate fate. 140 photographs,
including one of the Confederate cruiser Alabama recently uncovered
by the author further contribute to this indispensable volume. This
definitive record of Civil War ships updates the author's previous
work and will find a lasting place among naval reference works.
