Publisher Description

Ronald Reagan left behind a legacy that America will never forget.

Edited by Douglas Brinkley, editor of the #1   bestseller  , this indispensable Reagan retrospective is perfect for anyone looking to find inspiration in the thoughts and musings of a great American leader. "A portrait of a president who was engaged by his job and had a healthy perspective on power." —Jon Meacham,  "Reagan the diarist is at home with himself, unself-consciously comfortable. . . . Two things run through the diaries like a thread: One is a kind of gee-whiz everyman's delight in finding himself in such interesting and enjoyable circumstances; the other is his love for and reliance on Nancy." —Tim Rutten,  "It's amazing what nuggets of information you can unearth deep within a book as jampacked as  ." —Walter Pincus,

The Notes Reviews

4.0
“This was a really quick and enjoyable read. Reagan was not only a very philosophical man, but he has a great sense of humor. I found the range of topics in his notes to be really interesting. Getting an insight into some of his personal notes made it easy to see why he was such an effective speaker. This book is just another reminder that we could use another Reagan.”
