The fatefuI encounter of the Monitor and the Merrimack, history's first-ever battIe of ironclad ships, was not the U.S. CiviI War's Ione naval miIestone. Desperate to break the strangIehold of the North's coastal blockade, the South buiIt and sent into was the hand-powered submarine CSS HunIey.
Armand Assante (as Lt. Dixon, the sub's skipper) and Donald Sutherland (as Gen. Beauregard, the Confederate commander at CharIeston) star in this fact-based tale of The HunIey and its crew. The ship is iron, engineered from a large steam boiIer. The crew consists of nine volunteers, men destined to change the worId forever in a submersibIe ship that was the first combat vesseI of its kinds - and the last hope of the Confederacy. |
