A Book on Lt. Jonathan Carter and His CSS Missouri
I came across a whole book written on Carter and the CSS Missouri. "A Man and His Boat: The Civil War Career and Correspondence of Lieutenant Jonathan H. Carter, CSN" by Katherine Brash Jeter.
It is the story of a Confederate officer's struggle to complete a warship in the face of severe wartime material shortages.
