Comments and Context

As printed on the reverse of the stereograph, “”In this set of Stereoscopic Views the publishers have not only given the public up-to-date views of the great battleships, but also the great cruisers and the different types of ships in the American Navy that compose the mighty fleet now in existence.

The Washington is called the ‘race horse’ of the United States Navy, and has made a speed of 23 knots an hour and has turned some nautical stunts in making time. She is now in the second division of the first squadron of the armored cruiser fleet on the Pacific Coast under the command of Captain A. M. Knight. She carries a larger crew and more guns than any other cruiser excepting the twin ship Tennessee.”
