A book I’ve been looking for for *years* and have come to assume doesn’t actually exist is one that collects diagrams of Civil War era ironclads… diagrams useful for model makers. I’ve seen books with good diagrams of sailing vessels, but it seems like the moment steam engines come into the picture, diagrams dry up. Has there been such a book? Would there be a market for such a book? And is there even adequate documentation to fill out such a book?
Something that collects diagrams of not just the Monitor and the Virginia, but the less well known vessels like the Choctaw, Essex, Keokuk, Lafayette, Mississippi, Albermarle and all the other vessels from that transitional and important era.
