Hello all,

Just a quick question: I was doing some research on the CSS Nashville, which was built at the mouth of that little creek in Montgomery, Alabama that empties into the Alabama River right next to the new aphitheatre. It was one of the ships helping the CSS Tennessee in the Battle of Mobile Bay. I hae found two pics of her. One looks like a standard C.S. casemate ironclad, but with encased or armored sidewheels, and the other is a view from foward of and to one side of the bow, as if you are on the water's level. But on that one she has a hull and bow like the Alabama or something but has big sidewheels.

Now which depiction is correct? Or were there two CSS Nashvilles sort of like there were two CSS Tennessees?
Thanks,
Dave
