About this listen
Could a single pig bring two nations to the brink of war? Believe it or not, in 1859, it almost happened! Discover the utterly bizarre and surprisingly tense story of the Pig War, a standoff between the U.S. and Great Britain over a disputed island and one very unfortunate swine. Learn how diplomatic bluster, military posturing, and ultimately, remarkable restraint prevented a full-blown conflict over a barnyard animal.
