The Overall Appeal of the USS Kidd

 The USS Kidd museum is not the typical museum. This museum has been constructed within the actual ship, allowing for an authentic visiting experience. The rustic appearance of the USS Kidd and its function as an actual museum are extremely effective in the preservation of United States history due to their employment of the rhetorical appeals of ethos, pathos, and logos, therefore bringing in a large number of visitors because people are significantly more inclined to want to experience the real thing rather than only experiencing a replica or complete remake. As one examines the outside of the ship from afar, they can see that it is extremely large. This intrigues viewers and encourages them to want to roam around the ship and explore every interesting aspect of it. It appears more on the rustic side rather than extremely polished, which is an extremely powerful aspect of it. Due to the fact that viewers can see that it has actually been used, they will be more intrigued by both the ship itself and the history which lies behind it. The appearance of the ship adds to the overall purpose behind the creation of this museum, remembrance and the preservation of history, while urging its viewer to have the desire to learn more about it by paying it a visit.
