    Abstract:
    Henrietta Liston, wife of a British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire in the early nineteenth century, recorded her travels in a private journal, now held in the National Library of Scotland. Together with academics from Bilkent University in Ankara, the Library is currently working to publish the journal for the first time. Dora Petherbridge, Curator of US & Commonwealth Collections, and Dr. Patrick Hart, Assistant Professor of English Literature at Bilkent, introduce Liston’s Turkish exploits.
