Here are just a few of the things I've been working on...


  • American Civil War ironclads, with particular emphasis on USS Monitor and CSS Virginia. You can read a few things here and here.


  • Iconography and popular culture of the Battle of Hampton Roads. Sadly, the website for the exhibition I curated on this topic has been taken down. A few pics are below...


  • 19th century East Coast Marine Salvage Companies with particular emphasis on B & J Baker & Company of Norfolk, VA



  • General Maritime popular culture, including music, art, literature, humor, and iconograph


  • Maritime social history of the 16th through 19th centuries
