Naval History and Heritage - This source was helpful in finding an itinerary of the trip to help figure out the order of the places the fleet went. It was a good place to start to figure out what trips to research.
Cruise of the Great White Fleet - This site was helpful in figuring out some details about where the fleet went and some of the things they did while in those places. I used it mainly as a guide to search elsewhere.
Library Of Congress - I used this source to find a primary source newspaper telling about the Great White Fleet. I also found the names of all of the ships, their special features, and the Captains of each from this source.

Great White Fleet Progress!
I have been working hard looking for more information to create accurate postcards which I am finding a little difficult. I have almost all of my sources but since I missed school on Friday I still need to figure out how to use AVL. I plan on asking Mrs. Lawson about that soon. I have not found all of my pictures yet but I have made good progress today, though I did find out the newspaper article I planned to use was actually an advertisement for cruises reusing the boats from the Great White Fleet. Luckily I did quickly find a new article and am back on track.
