Duel Between the First Ironclads by William C Davis
One was called a tin can on a shingle; the other, a half-submerged crocodile. Yet, on a March day in 1862 in Hampton Roads, Virginia, after a five-hour duel, the USS. Monitor and the C.S.S. Virginia(formerly the USS. Merrimack) were to change the course of not only the Civil War but also naval warfare forever.
William C. Davis, former executive director of the Virginia Center for Civil War Studies at Virginia Tech University, has written numerous books, including An Honorable Defeat: The Last Days of the Confederate Government.
