Publisher's Synopsis
The Trent And San Jacinto is a historical book written by Charles Clark in 1862. The book tells the story of two significant events in American history - the Trent Affair and the Battle of San Jacinto. The Trent Affair was a diplomatic crisis that occurred during the American Civil War when a Union warship intercepted a British mail steamer, the Trent, and removed two Confederate diplomats who were on board. The incident almost led to a war between the United States and Great Britain. The Battle of San Jacinto, on the other hand, was a decisive battle that took place in 1836 during the Texas Revolution. The Texian army, led by General Sam Houston, defeated the Mexican army and secured Texas' independence from Mexico. In this book, Charles Clark provides a detailed account of both events, including the political and military strategies involved. He also explores the impact of these events on American history and how they shaped the country's future. The Trent And San Jacinto is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history, diplomacy, and military strategy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
