Almost finished with Peggy Noonan's book about Ronald Reagan, ' When Character was King'. That would be my selection for 2001.

I agree - just finished Peggy Noonan's book "When Character Was King" last night. Very readable and enlightening biography of Reagan. I also just finished "Bias" - it was good, but not "best" of the year.
