The album features a number of images of the 18th Royal Irish regiment taken in and around the barracks (likely Albert Barracks). There are also portraits of individual members of the regiment. Other regiments featured include the 14th Regiment.
Images in and around Wanganui by James Harding. Other photographs include Auckland and the Waikato region as well as an image of the British redoubt at Gate Pa.
There are numerous portraits in the album ranging from Wiremu Tamihana and Tamati Waka Nene to George Grey and General Grant (Union Army).
The album also includes overseas images such as the Niagara falls by George Barker and photographs of Sydney and Ellenborough, England.
It is not known whether or not Daubeny himself took photographs or simply collected and compiled them as none of them are signed by him.
For further information see Higgins, S. Brothers in glass : Montagu Higginson and the photographers of the Waikato War, Records of the Auckland Museum, 2012; v.48:p.5-28.
