3.6/5 ( ratings)

Born: June 30 1805

Died: 1515 05 18771877

David Urquhart was a Scottish diplomat, writer and politician, serving as a Member of Parliament from 1847 to 1852.

In 1827, Urquhart joined the nationalist cause in the Greek War of Independence. Seriously injured, he spent the next few years championing the Greek cause in letters to the British government, a self-promotion that entailed his appointment in 1831 to Sir Stratford Canning's mission to Istanbul to settle the border between Greece and Turkey.
