The U.S. Navy and Industrial Mobilization.
William H. Roberts. The first comprehensive study of one of the most ambitious programs in the history of naval shipbuilding. The Navy established a "project office" that spearheaded efforts to develop a marine fleet of ironclads, but the author argues here that, for the many reasons he presents and contrary to widespread belief, the ironclad program set Navy shipbuilding back a generation. 298 pgs., 25 B&W illustrations, 6"x 9", hdbd. #0C10334
