This sub-series consists of correspondence, speeches, notes, memos, some publications and many clippings on the Biafran crisis and the civil war in Nigeria. Some of the publications are rare, original pamphlets put out by the opposing sides in the civil war. There are press releases and publications by various agencies, such as the International Red Cross, addressed specifically to this crisis. There are also some files of McLean's correspondence on Biafra, and the Presbyterian Church's attempts at relief of suffering in Nigeria. The sub-series also holds two M.A. theses written after the event by students. Save for McLean's correspondence, some speeches and the files on the Presbyterian Church, the rest of the material in this sub-series is print (publications or press clippings).
