Trent Affair: 1861-1862. The Trent Affair was the diplomatic crisis that potentially brought Great Britain and the United States closest to war during the first year of the American Civil War.
Lucy Trent was the great niece of John Neely Bryan, a descendant of JNB younger brother William Bryan. Her brother was John Bob Payne, and it was he who illustrated the book. The book was published in 1936, and I found a copy of it in the Grand Prairie, Texas library.
