Description

The creation of a Confederate ironclad fleet was once a miracle of ingenuity, improvisation and logistics. Surrounded by a superb enemy fleet, Confederate designers adapted existing vessels or created new ones from the keel up with the only real purpose of breaking the naval stranglehold at the nascent country. Her ironclads were build in remote cornfields, on small inland rivers or in naval yards inside of sight of the enemy. The outcome was once an unorthodox but remarkable number of vessels, that have been ready to contest the rivers and coastal waters of the South for 5 years. This title explains how these vessels worked, how they were constructed, how they were manned and how they fought.
