| dc.description.abstract | The year 1850's is important due to the Crimean War (1853-1856) and the Reform Edict of 1856. Of those, the Crimean War no doubt affected trade more than anything else. Samsun and Sinope were important not only for Ottoman-British trade relations during the Crimean War but also due to their geopolitical and strategic position in the Black Sea region both during and post- the Crimean War years. For these reasons, both cities were subject of both British consulate reports of that time and modern studies examining them. Two of these consuls/vice consuls were St. Vincent Lloyd and Frederick Guarracino. In their reports, Lloyd and Guarracino provided detailed information on trade in Samsun and Sinope. Besides their reports, British newspapers of that time presented some significant information and details on commercial life in Samsun and Sinope. Based mainly on these two sources, British consulate reports and newspaper news, this article aims to present and evaluate information about trade in Samsun and Sinope in the 1850s. | |
