In this episode of Dave Does History, we take you back to 1861 for a tense diplomatic showdown that could have changed the course of the American Civil War. Known as the Trent Affair, this crisis began when a Union warship intercepted a British mail ship carrying Confederate diplomats, sparking outrage in Britain and bringing the two nations to the brink of war. How did President Lincoln navigate this high-stakes standoff, and what role did diplomacy play in avoiding a second conflict? Join us as we unravel the events, key figures, and lasting impact of the Trent Affair on U.S.-British relations and Civil War history.
