iary at the
Confederate States Capital," by J. B. Jones (2 vols., 1866) which
has really neither more nor less value than a Richmond newspaper.
Conspicuous among writings of this type is the delightful "Diary from
Dixie," by Mrs. Mary B. Chestnut (1905) and "My Diary, North and South,"
by W. H. Russell (1861).

The documents of the civil history, so far as they are accessible to the
general reader, are to be found in the three volumes forming the fourth
series of the "Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies"
(128 vols., 1880-1901); the "Journals of the Congress of the Confederate
States" (8 vols., 1904) and "Messages and Papers of the Confederacy,"
edited by J. D. Richardson (2 vols., 1905). Four newspapers are of first
importance: the famous opposition organs, the Richmond Examiner and the
Charleston Mercury, which should be offset by the two leading organs of
the Government, the Courier of Charleston and the Enquirer of Richmond.
The Statutes of the Confederacy have been collected and published;
most of them are also to be found in the fourth series of the Official
Records.

Additional bibliographical references will be found appended to the
articles on the "Confederate States of America," "Secession," and
"Jefferson Davis," in "The Encyclopaedia Britannica," 11th edition.
