Book The British Foreign Service and the American Civil War

Download or read book The British Foreign Service and the American Civil War written by Eugene Berwanger and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the American Civil War, the British legation and consuls experienced strained relations with both the Union and the Confederacy, to varying degrees and with different results. Southern consuls were cut off from the legation in Washington, D.C., and confronted their problems for the most part without direction from superiors. Consuls in the North sought assistance from the British foreign minister and followed the procedures he established. Diplomatic relations with Great Britain eased tensions in the North; the British consuls in the South were expelled in 1863. Eugene H. Berwanger uses archival sources in both Britain and the United States as a basis for his reevaluation of consular attitudes. Because much of this material was not available to earlier historians of British-American diplo-macy, the author expands upon their conclusions and suggests reinterpreta-tions in light of the new information. The first comprehensive investigation of Anglo-American relations during the Civil War, The British Foreign Service and the American Civil War will interest scholars of American history and diplomatic relations.

This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Correspondence Respecting the Removal of British Consuls From the So-Styled Confederate States of America: Presented to the House of Commons by Command of Her Majesty, 1864 I Have the honour to inclose herewith the copy of a despatch and inclosures written by me to Lord Lyons, dated the 6th instant, from which your Lordship will gather that this Government has annulled my exequatur. I Have the honour to inclose to your Lordship the copy of a letter addressed to me by Mr. Benjamin, Secretary of State, under yesterday's date, together with Letters-Patent (copy also inclosed) in the name of the President, Mr. Jefferson Davis, revoking my exequatur as Her Majesty's Consul for the State of Virginia, for the reason therein assigned, that I had corresponded with the Secretary of War here, on matters beyond my Consular jurisdiction, after receiving an intimation from the Secretary of State not to do so. I am very happy to state that my last crowning Consular act was consummated yesterday morning before I received this ungenerous withdrawal of my exequatur, by which measure I have checked the attempted conscription of British subjects, under various pretext, namely, for having voted, for having declared their intention of becoming citizens, for holding real estate, and for having married in the country, so that numerous British subjects got their release from captivity in a military camp yesterday, and it will stay I trust for a time this source of anxiety to them. If I am to leave Richmond it will be absolutely necessary that this Government should allow the unshackled departure of all British subjects; and it military exigencies should be pleaded as an excuse for objecting to allow them to cross their military lines, I beg to suggest whether means could not be resorted to to have steamers sent to City Point, on the James River, for their conveyance to Baltimore or New York. There are numerous British workmen in the different Government workshops who are very anxious to leave, at their expense, but they are refused passports.

Book excerpt: Between the Confederacy and recognition by Great Britain stood one unlikely Englishman who hated the slave trade. His actions helped determine the fate of a nation. When Robert Bunch arrived in Charleston to take up the post of British consul in 1853, he was young and full of ambition, but even he couldn’t have imagined the incredible role he would play in the history-making events to unfold. In an age when diplomats often were spies, Bunch’s job included sending intelligence back to the British government in London. Yet as the United States threatened to erupt into Civil War, Bunch found himself plunged into a double life, settling into an amiable routine with his slavery-loving neighbors on the one hand, while working furiously to thwart their plans to achieve a new Confederacy. As secession and war approached, the Southern states found themselves in an impossible position. They knew that recognition from Great Britain would be essential to the survival of the Confederacy, and also that such recognition was likely to be withheld if the South reopened the Atlantic slave trade. But as Bunch meticulously noted from his perch in Charleston, secession’s red-hot epicenter, that trade was growing. And as Southern leaders continued to dissemble publicly about their intentions, Bunch sent dispatch after secret dispatch back to the Foreign Office warning of the truth—that economic survival would force the South to import slaves from Africa in massive numbers. When the gears of war finally began to turn, and Bunch was pressed into service on an actual spy mission to make contact with the Confederate government, he found himself in the middle of a fight between the Union and Britain that threatened, in the boast of Secretary of State William Seward, to “wrap the world in flames.” In this masterfully told story, Christopher Dickey introduces Consul Bunch as a key figure in the pitched battle between those who wished to reopen the floodgates of bondage and misery, and those who wished to dam the tide forever. Featuring a remarkable cast of diplomats, journalists, senators, and spies, Our Man in Charleston captures the intricate, intense relationship between great powers on the brink of war.
