Hereβs a brief history of the ship during the Spanish-American War: After a special cruise to Great Britain to celebrate Queen Victoria and service in the West Indies, she became the flagship of the Flying Squadron in March 1898. The USS Brooklyn played a significant role in the Spanish-American War. She was the flagship of Commodore Winfield Scott Schleyβs βFlying Squadronβ and participated in the naval battle off Santiago de Cuba on July 3, 1898. In this battle, the USS Brooklyn was a key vessel, and although she was struck 20 times by whole shot, Brooklyn suffered only one man wounded (Fireman J. Bevins) and one man killed (Chief Yeoman George Henry Ellis).Following the war, she steamed to become the flagship of the Asiatic Squadron during the China Relief Expedition in 1900. This lithograph is a unique piece of history from this pivotal time, making it a valuable collectorβs item. Owning it is like owning a piece of American naval history.
