Battle of Hampton Roads, Sinking of USS Cumberland,1862

The first USS Cumberland was a 50-gun sailing frigate of the USN. Cumberland was rammed and sunk in an engagement with the Confederate ironclad CSS Virginia (formerly USS Merrimack) at Newport News, Virginia on March 8, 1862. The engagement known as the first day of the Battle of Hampton Roads between the two ships is considered to be a turning point in the history of world naval affairs as it showed the advantage of steam-powered, armored ships over sail-powered wooden hulled ships. Currier & Ives, 1862 (cropped and cleaned).
