In this remarkable autobiography, Ronald Reagan presents a definitive personal account of his historic presidency. With uncompromising candor, modesty, and wit, he tells the story of his life – public and private – and reveals the events that shaped his reluctant candidacy and the decision-making process that led to his first nomination; the unseen dangers of Gorbachev’s first visit to America; startling facts about top-secret meetings involving heads of state; his frustrations with Congress; and his relationships with the members of his Cabinet.
Here are the behind-the-scenes details of the great themes and dramatic crises marking Reagan’s eight years in office, as well as new insights and often surprising revelations regarding his innermost feelings about life in the White House, the assassination attempt, his family – and the enduring love between him and his wife Nancy.
An American Life is an inspiring American success story, a brilliant self-portrait, and a compelling and significant work of history.
