Diary of Bragg during three periods: 3 January-1 March 1861, in Washington, D.C., as a U.S. senator from North Carolina during the secession crisis; 5 November 1861-9 April 1862, in Richmond, Va., as Confederate attorney general; and 11 April-7 November 1862, as a private citizen living at Petersburg, Va.
