USS Roanoke (1857-1883)
Line engraving published in "Harper's Weekly", 1862,
depicting the configuration of the ship as converted to a triple-turret
ironclad.
This view, made during the early stages of the conversion, is
inaccurate in several ways, not least the location of the smokestack
between the second and third turrets, rather than between the
first and second.
