The largest component of the collection is the group of approximately 14,500 English-language letters McLean received from many hundreds of correspondents, both public and private. Just as significant are the almost 3000 letters from Māori correspondents, which are the largest surviving series of nineteenth-century Māori letters. There are sequences of outwards letters, a large body of working papers relating to McLean's various political positions, diaries, maps, family letters and other papers.

During the 1850s the letters largely concern his judicial and land purchase activities. Two frequent correspondents in this period are his deputy in Taranaki, Henry Halse, and his subordinate in the Land Purchase Department, George Cooper.

He liked to keep his papers to himself, and often avoided filing them with other Native Department records, no matter how much they concerned key Government business. This had one advantage for later historians. Many of the Native Department's records from the 19th century were destroyed when Parliament Buildings burnt down in 1907. McLean's papers at the Turnbull Library help fill some of the gaps left by this loss.

The research helped him in his official duties, but the notes also reveal a fascination with Māori history and culture that went beyond the purely pragmatic.

The size and scope of the papers reflect McLean's personality and ways of working. McLean's influence in part maintained a large network of informants, and he relied on their regular reports for information about what was going on around the country. His work also took him on many expeditions to meet with Māori leaders, which he carefully documented in his diaries and notebooks. The papers, therefore, provide a particularly rich record of interactions between Government and Māori at this time.

In this meeting at Wairoa in 1865 he can be seen sitting under the tree on the left, clearly the centre of attention. Such meetings were an important part of his work, and they are well documented in his papers

E ai ki a Ray Fargher, te kaituhi i te oranga o McLean , he tangata pūkaha, he hao nui a McLean , he kaiponu hoki i tāna mana whakahaere, he nui tāna ake whakaaro ki tōna pono ake.

McLean's biographer Ray Fargher shows McLean to be a person with much drive and ambition, extremely reluctant to share power or delegate, and with a very high opinion of his own integrity. At the same time he was markedly more willing than most of his settler contemporaries to allow Māori some limited say in the country's legislative and political structures. But ultimately he was at the heart of policies that led, as Fargher puts it, "to the political, economic and cultural marginalisation of the Māori within what had been their own country".

In 1861 McLean temporarily retreated from central government to concentrate on building up his large and profitable estates in Hawke's Bay, and indulge in local politics. He was elected Superintendant of the Hawke's Bay Province in 1863 and returned to Wellington as an elected politician in 1866. Through the later 1860s McLean was in charge of the campaign against Te Kooti on the East Coast and from 1869 until just before his death in early 1877 he was the Minister in charge of Native Affairs. He married in 1851 but his wife died the following year, while giving birth to their only son.

Born in Scotland, McLean arrived at the Bay of Islands to seek his fortune soon after the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi in 1840. By 1844 he was working as a sub-protector in Taranaki in the Protectorate Department. It was the start of a stellar career. Later McLean drove the Government's land purchase activities, as Chief Native Land Purchase Commissioner. By 1856 he was the head of the Native Affairs Department: his support of the disputed Waitara purchase lead to the outbreak of war in Taranaki in the early 1860s.

McLean was not a regular diarist, and he became more haphazard as he got older. Some daily entries are brief, and others very detailed. His main purpose was to record all the complex details of his meetings with Māori about land purchase and other matters, for later follow-up. The diaries were also used to record items of interest, such as notes on the Māori language, census information, or to draft letters. The diaries deal more with his work as a Government employee than his later activities as an elected politician.
