 Title:  Elisha Kent Kane Papers     
 Dates:  1810-1953 
 Abstract:  Among the most popular of American explorers of the mid-nineteenth century, Kane visited Africa in 1846 aboard the frigate United States. The Kane collection contains a variety of fascinating materials relating to the slave trade and plight of African Americans in the nineteenth century. The papers consist of manuscript materials entitled "Journal of a Trip to Africa," "Slave voyage notebook," and "Whydah slave trade." Also, there are two "Africa: miscellaneous" folders which include an essay on the commercial policy and history of the Gold Coast, along with quantitative data for the years 1820-1843 regarding the repatriation of African Americans to Liberia.
