Description
|
|
|
|
There are few places more steeped in U.S. naval history than Norfolk and Hampton Roads (the basin at the confluence of the Elizabeth, James, and several smaller rivers at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay) in Virginia's Tidewater region, witness to the British surrender at Yorktown, the battle of the Monitor and the Merrimac, and German U-boat attacks. In this companion volume to San Diego's Navy, with black and white illustrations throughout and a 24-page gallery of color plates, Bruce Linder chronicles the navy in Hampton Roads, portraying a region that prefers to think of itself as a small southern city, yet has helped to form nearly every facet of the navy.
