Vera Cruz 1847 Siege by the American Fleet and Army
The 1847 Vera Cruz assault led by Commodore Perry and General Scott opened with naval bombardment and a bold boat assault. After heavy fighting and a costly siege, the Mexican garrison capitulated, and the city fell under American control with 5,000 prisoners and 400 guns seized. Santa Anna’s government failed to aid defense, and Worth assumed command before a march toward Mexico City.

Dimensions of Noah's Ark Compared With Modern Vessels
A Bristol Chamber center talk by Mr Alsditt compares Noahs ark dimensions to present ships. He argues the ark proportions suit sailing ships well and, with slight lengthening for machinery space, match top transatlantic steamers. He notes early 17th century Peter Bans ships followed ark models but proved cargo efficient and seaworthy.
