The funny thing is that we were actually taught many of these facts - for example, we talked extensively about secession and nullification, with...
Ah, you jogged my memory. Thanks for the information! I always find it interesting when technology evolves more quickly than the people using it.
I seem to remember it was during the Civil War that the first US ironclad warships came into the picture. I think the north's ship was the USS...
