Civil War Navies 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 Navies 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.
