William H. Roberts has produced an excellent study of the design and production of the U.S. Navy's Civil War monitors that will interest historians of technology, business, the military, and maritime affairs. Roberts effectively explores the "Union's industrial mobilization and the U.S. Navy's evolution of a flexible, effective system to manage ship acquisition of unprecedented size and technological complexity" (p. 1)
