The 'Nashville destroying a federal merchantman, American Civil War, 1861-1862 (c1880). Built as a passenger steamer, the 'Nashville' was converted into a warship by the Confederates when the Civil War began. Escaping the Union blockade in 1861, she crossed the Atlantic, becoming the first ship to fly the Confederate flag in British waters. She returned to America the following year and was renamed the 'Thomas L Wragg'. She ended as a privateer, named the 'Rattlesnake', and was destroyed in February 1863 by the Union monitor USS 'Montauk' after running aground in the Ogeechee River in Georgia. A print from Cassell's History of the United States, by Edmund Ollier, Volume III, Cassell Petter and Galpin, London, c1880. (Photo by The Print Collector/Print Collector/Getty Images)
