Item description from seller

In 'Ironclad Down,' master model builder and historian Carl Park presents the definitive account of the Confederate ironclad Virginia, the famous Civil War ship, correcting countless long-standing inaccuracies about the design and construction of the ship that signaled the end of the era of wooden naval ships. Divided into three parts, 'Ironclad Down' first introduces the men who played important roles in the complex story of the ship. A second section analyzes the design of the Merrimack and the alterations that were made to create the Virginia. A final section presents a thorough analysis of the ship's construction.
