Background

About the ship

At the end of the 19th century, Brazil ordered a series of armored cruisers from Armstrong to strengthen its fleet. One was sold to Chile, and Spain sought to buy the other two to replenish its fleet after the losses incurred during the Spanish-American War, but the United States leapfrogged Spain. Almirante Abreu was laid down in 1897 and became part of the U.S. Navy under the name "Albany" in 1900. The cruiser participated in both World War I and the Philippine-American War. In 1920, she was reclassified as a gunboat and decommissioned two years later.
