Photo #: NH 58733
USS Roanoke (1857-1883)
Line engraving published in "Harper's Weekly", 1862,
depicting the configuration of the ship as converted to an ironclad.
This view, published early in the conversion process, is extremely
inaccurate, showing the ship with only two turrets rather than
three. Turrets are also shown considerably larger than they actually
were.
