Located on the western shore of the Hudson River, the town of Esopus is known as "place of the small river, wellspring of creation." Here, Amerindians made wampum belts and forged treaties with rogue ambassador and pioneer Kit Davits; former slave Sojourner Truth began her freedom trail; Judge Parker wrote speeches for his presidential campaign; and on nearby riverbanks, John Burroughs pondered nature and composed his essays. Esopus, with its collection of more than two hundred images, tells not only of these historic figures but also of the immigrants who plied their trades among the ice, boats, and barns; built walls of stone and farmed the land; or sought their riches in the salted gold mine on Hussey's Hill.

Esopus, New York (Images of America Series)
Pretty good description of the battle and subsequent lives of the Merrimack and Monitor Ironclads. Both ships were the first of their kind (for their respective sides) and fought each other to a draw in their only battle. This book is pretty engagingly told, and has a wealth of photos, paintings and illustrations pertaining to the ships and the people that crewed them, as well as some interesting maps.
