Uncover the story of the American Civil War's ironclad warships with the
New York Times bestselling graphic novel series!
Ships are great for transport, but when they are made of wood they tend
to start leaking when cannons fire upon them. But what if the ship is
covered with iron? Assuming it doesn't sink to the bottom of the ocean,
wouldn't it be stronger and better than any other ship out there? This
is the question that begins a race between the North and the South to
come up with the biggest, best ironclad warships.
Here is the story of the USS Monitor and the CSS Virginia (also
called the Merrimack), two of the world's first ironclad ships and
their fascinating role in the Civil War, and through their ironclad
battle, you will get wider perspective to the war. Meet Abraham Lincoln
and his cabinet. Learn about General Winfield Scott's Anaconda Plan to
cut off the South from any outside support. And meet Gideon Welles,
Lincoln's "Father Neptune" and Secretary of the Navy.
Sail back in time and learn of a battle that changed warfare, and a war
that changed history.
