Spanish American War and "New Navy" links

To get the ball rolling and provide some content for discussion while we are preparing our first blogs, here are some excellent websites for those interested in the warships and history of the New Navy period.  These sites provide some overlap into the "Old Navy" as well as into the Dreadnaught/Super Dreadnaught era, for a bit of context.
