Much as we may think that the Civil War's outcome was determined by a series of cataclysmic land battles, another war unfolded along clandestine lines, with Great Britain playing a powerful role. By leaking information about Anglo-American communications to Confederate agents abroad, Foreign Office clerk Victor Buckley saved the Alabama from being saved by the British, freeing it to deliver supplies to the South.
