CSS Richmond
Another of my R.G. Skerrett reproductions. The CSS Richmond was started at the Norfolk Navy Yard. When the Confederates evacuated the Norfolk area, she was towed up the James River to Richmond, Virginia for completion. She thereafter served in the James River Squadron, protecting the Confederacy's capital city from waterborne assault.
