Gerneral Grant's journal entries primary or secondary source?
General Grant's Journal is a primary source. A primary source is an eye witness. It is what the person who was there actually saw. Such accounts are extremely important because they give a feel for the era. A secondary source would be what you would hear if one of your parents told you what they heard about World War 2. They would be passing on a story. Also, Jefferson Davis, the president of the Confederacy, also wrote his memoirs. If someone took Grant's Journal and Davis' Memoirs and made a book, that would be a secondary source. Still, it might give a better overall picture of the war. So a primary source is one written by someone who saw what was going on.
