In 1716, Lady Mary Wortley Montagu's husband Edward Montagu was appointed
British ambassador to the Sublime Porte of the Ottoman Empire. Despite
discouragement from friends that feared for her safety, she accompanied her
husband to Turkey and wrote an extraordinary series of letters that recorded
her experiences as a traveler and her impressions of Ottoman culture and society.
