Klappentext
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The second USS Colorado (ACR-7), also referred to "Armored Cruiser No. 7", and later renamed Pueblo (CA-7), was a United States Navy Pennsylvania-class armored cruiser. She was launched on 25 April 1903 by William Cramp and Sons, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; sponsored by Miss C. M. Peabody, and commissioned on 19 January 1905, Captain D. Kennedy in command. Joining the Atlantic Fleet on 11 October 1905, Colorado trained and took part in drills along the east coast and in the Caribbean - as well as participating in ceremonies - until 7 September 1906, when she sailed for duty on the Asiatic Station. After cruising to Japan and China to represent American interests in the Far East, she returned to the west coast on 27 September 1907 for exercises along the Californian and Mexican coasts, in the Hawaiian Islands, and off Central and South America. She served again in the Far East from September 1909-February 1910. Ceremonial visits and receptions for dignitaries highlighted the next two years, and from November 1911-July 1912, Colorado returned to the Far East for duty.
