As between the two, a diary should be accorded greater value than letters, for it is apt to be more ingenuous, more honest. Thus it is not possible toimagine that any historian can possibly have access to better evidence than this Diary of Mr. Welles.&rdquo, &mdash,John T. Morse, Jr., in the Introduction, 1909Diary of Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy Under Lincoln and Johnson Vol. II áoffers the view and experiences of Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy during the Civil War, of the Abraham Lincoln administration, and of the Andrew Johnson administration that followed.
