These records closely parallel the scope and content of the State Department Central Files but contain the papers from American diplomats stationed in important foreign countries. For certain countries during the period prior to the end of World War II there are reasons to prefer the Post Records instead of the Central Files because they contain more detailed information obtained directly from sources throughout the nations themselves. For other countries, the Post Records have survived in a more intact condition than the Central Files.
