"The Ciano Diaries are one of the most important documents recording the events taking place in Europe leading up to the Second World War and how they effected the rest of the world. Galeazzo Ciano was in the forefront of those momentous events, not only because he happened to be Mussolini's son-in-law, but most important because at the age of 35 he was also Italy's Minister of Foreign Affairs and one of the major proponents of the Axis Alliance with Nazi Germany.""The members of what was politely termed the 'Italian Government' were no more than Mussolini's lackeys. Count Ciano himself was wholly subservient to him. Count Ciano was a man who lacked neither personal dignity nor physical courage, and yet I have seen him quail at an interview with Mussolini when the Dictator showed irritation. "I first knew of the existence of this Diary... from Count Ciano himself. He showed it to me and read me excerpts from it in my first conversation with him. There is no question of its authenticity... I believe it to be one of the most valuable historical documents of our times."—Sumner Welles
