SIR JAMES PORTER’S TURKEY: ITS HISTORY AND PROGRESS

Abstract

Many books have been written on the history of the Ottoman Empire. This ancient civilization has attracted attention of many researchers, historians and writers across the world, one of whom was Sir James Porter having served as the British ambassador to Istanbul. Porter, who stayed in Istanbul for 16 years, had the chance to observe the Ottoman Empire closely. He wrote two books on the Ottoman Empire. One of them is “Sir James Porter’s Turkey: Its History and Progress”. The book reviewed presents both Sir James Porter’s subjective thoughts and observations as well as historical facts on the social, political, economic and legal fields of the Ottoman Empire. The work analyzed under book review stands out as an important historical source.
