Collection Guide:
The majority of this album consists of liberty-type photographs including city and village scenes. There are only a few crew and ship photographs. The images appear to follow the ship on her cruise from Bremerton (not depicted in the collection) on 24 December 1905 for operations in the Philippines. Remaining there until March 1906, USS Concord sailed to China. Until 1908 she remained in the Far East serving at times on the Yangtze Patrol and as station ship at Shanghai and Canton.
