The voyage of the 'coffin ship' Ajax, from Dublin to Grosse Ile,
the Canadian quarantine station as described in the contemporary
diary of one of the passengers, Robert Whyte. Whyte was a
Protestant gentleman of education and position, as well as being a
professional writer who intended to publish his diary. The diary
appeared in 1848. It is signed in the author's own handwriting and
features vivid descriptions of the spectacular scenery along the
way and the striking delineations of the passengers, the crew and
the suffering travellers.
