Lincoln's Boys

[Gene C]

Well, I must confess I am a bit confused. I thought for sure that Mr. Zeitz mentioned in the C-Span program Hay & Nicolay both wrote diaries, but according to Michael Burlingame, editor of this book on Nicolay's writing, Nicolay did not have a diary. I may have misunderstood him. Then again, maybe what Mr Burlingame considers memorandum and journal entries, Mr. Zeitz considers a diary.

Has anyone read either of these men's diaries, journals or whatever? Mr Burlingame has written/edited a few on Hay. Any recommendations?
