Book Reviews of The Reagan Diaries
Book Review: A Unique Look Inside the Presidency
Summary: 5 Stars
As the product description says, this book is President Reagan's own personal diary he kept during his years in the White House. He was very adamant about making entries daily, only missing a couple of weeks while he was in the hospital following his assassination attempt.
When one reads this book, you really get the feeling of a man with passion. He took his job seriously. It is interesting to read Reagan's own personal views on the world and historic events that occurred during his presidency. He comes off as a rather humble person at times. He loved his wife.
It is important to read this book objectively. If you are a liberal looking to find something to prove Reagan was a mindless fool, you will be disappointed. I believe that anyone could enjoy this book whether or not you agree with his policies.
Credit must also go to the editor who took Reagan's raw diary and edited it down into a more manageable book which includes the essential parts of his life and summarizes the more routine day-to-day stuff.
