Query: Interesting, but not all that I had expected.

In reading this novel it comes across as more about the Merrimack and some about the Monitor. It seemed that the author was sympathetic to the South and anti North. Even more so, it seemed to be anti Lincoln in that over and over again Lincoln was referred to in various deragatory manners by people of the south as presented by the author. I came away with the feeling that the author was presenting the South as noble and in a favorable light while the North in a less than favorable light in that they were usurping the free men of the South the right to keep people in slavery. Furthermore, the wife on one Southern naval officer being held by the North is raped by another Southern naval officer and totally gets away with this. Maybe there is another book that will follow that will redress this incident, but I do not think I will waste my time.
