Protected Cruiser BOSTON
1887 - August 1940

About this Painting: The Cruiser BOSTON (not yet designated USS BOSTON) is getting underway from New York City in 1904. She's steaming at headway speed.
The BOSTON was one of the first US Navy steel ships, and was propelled by sails, her steam engine, or both. She had an extremely long service to America.
