Join us this Saturday, January 14, for our monthly Civil War Lecture series!
This month we’re looking at the technological revolution of the 1800’s which gave birth to that marvelous ship the USSMonitor. But the Civil War “Battle of the Ironclads” is only a small part of the fascinating journey from sail to steam and wood to iron. From a revolving turret to rubber buttons, life aboard theMonitorwas a reflection of changes occurring globally thanks to the civilian Industrial Revolution and the modernization of the world’s navies. We’ll examine the inventions in the decades leading up to the American Civil War and the evolution of technology as a result of that fateful day at Hampton Roads!
