Frederick Douglass Papers

U.S. History students:

For those of you who read Frederick Douglass' Narrative and would like to know more, there are a number of places that you can look. William McFeely wrote a fine biography of Douglass, here is the Amazon link for the book:

Also, you might be very well interested in the fact that the Library of Congress has put Frederick Douglass' papers (a diary, letters, newspaper clippings etc.) online. This would be an excellent primary source for any research project. (Hint, Hint, Hint) Here's the link:
