Henry Clark Rouse accompanied General Nelson A. Miles on a world tour setting out from San Francisco on October 1, 1902, and returning to New York, February 15, 1903. The album focuses on the military inspection and diplomatic tour of Hawaii, Guam, the Philippines, Japan, China, and concludes with the journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway. This privately printed work is illustrated lavishly with photographs taken on the trip. The photographs are particularly rich in depictions of daily life and military installations in the Philippines, where the party spent three weeks sailing between the islands and this section comprises the bulk of the photographic and textual content of the work. Photographs from China include locations in Hong Kong, Canton and Peking (Beijing) and the Great Wall. Two photographs of the aftermath of a public execution in the streets of Peking are also present.
