Will look for this in a couple months.
I have not read his other books, but he has written several about Reagan including, "Last Act: The Final Years and Emerging Legacy of Ronald Reagan" and "The Untold Story of the Campaign That Started It All."
Pfft.
Craig Shirley has been described by insider Reagan people, including Mike, as someone who was never a party to any of those discussions who has written so much.
Isubmit my bio, “Reagan: The American President” (2016) has more PREVIOUSLY UNSEEN material direct from the Reagan archives at the Reagan Library, than all of his put together. From looking at visitor logs when I was there, he had never visited the archives once. I looked through materials from hundreds of boxes. It irks me when someone like this gets on FAUX or another outlet and my book was basically ignored. It broke key new ground on Reagan’s intellect, his initiative in setting up the amnesty of 1986, his mission to Moscow to convert Gorby to Christianity, etc. GRRR
Imagine having terrorists blow up 250 Americans in one of our ME bases today. Has there been another president with the insight and forbearance to realize WE screwed up by placing them there in those circumstances. Rather, than starting a bloody American war, Reagan corrected our mistake and got out. He was from the warmongering cowboy the left made him out to be.
Ronald Reagan was the best president since Washington.
Donald Trump was the best president since Washington.
Donald Trump will be the best president since Trump.
One of Reagan’s most important sayings was that “it’s amazing what you can accomplish when you let others take credit for it.”
That holds true for his intellect, as well. He never claimed intellect, and let others take credit for it,
Yep.
Another one is “Reagan, In His Own Hand”. Highly recommended. Includes handwritten notes, speeches, etc. The documents include the edits he made to his own work, striving to make his point(s) perfectly clear. The reader gets to see how this great man’s mind worked.
