Battle of the Ironclads brings to life the dramatic events which occurred in Hampton Roads on March 8 and 9, 1862. This first battle between armored vessels, often called the Monitor-Merrimack engagement, is perhaps the most significant naval event of the entire Civil War. This thrilling history is the first volume to offer a comprehensive pictorial interpretation of the men and ships that forever changed naval warfare. Over 150 images, including photographs, engravings, paintings, and sketches, have been gathered from museums, archives, and private collections to chronicle the exciting story of the U.S.S. Monitor and the C.S.S. Virginia (Merrimack). While Battle of the Ironclads is a visual history of the first battle between armored ships, it is also a saga of uncommon valor and leadership epitomized by Franklin Buchanan, George U. Morris, Samuel Dana Greene, and John Taylor Wood. The brilliant innovations of John Mercer Brooke and the farsighted inventions of John Ericsson made this

Great shirt for big and tall fellas
As a bigger guy standing at 6'1" and 350 lbs, finding clothes that fit well can be a challenge. However, the Van Heusen big and tall shirt exceeded my expectations. It fit perfectly, with a good length that stayed tucked in when wearing a suit. Not only did it look great, but it also felt comfortable. I was so impressed that I've already purchased three more shirts in different colors. Highly recommended for big and tall men looking for stylish and well-fitting attire.

Great birthday present. Beautiful print.
This is a lovely shirt with a smart and dressy pattern. Bought it as a gift for a friend who is hard to fit, being very tall and slim. Perfect fit. Really appreciated this thoughtful find. Buying more for his birthday next year.

Handsome shirt
I love the material and pattern! I ordered the long fit does measure 31. I wish it was a little bit longer. I have an unusually long torso, but the shirt does fit and it looks great on so thank you very much!!
