It’s a great book about a great man that ends on a sad note (just like Reagan’s life will end after his long battle with Alzheimers).<br/><br/>There was one part of the book that really stood out and impressed me — so m...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/27795711">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I haven't read too many biographies of our American presidents-- maybe just two or three.  But this was definitely a great read and Noonan is a wonderful writer, even though she jumps around a bit too much, and you aren't quite sure which part of Reagan's life she's dealing with at times.

    <body><![CDATA[Even if I was a fan of Ronald Reagan, this simpering biography would probably have still made me upchuck. Particularly amusing was the foreword where Noonan, in 2001, predicts that George W. Bush would become one of the greatest presidents the US has ever seen. I bet she wants to take that back now....<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/34186533">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[You should know I may be a little biased--Ronald Reagan is one of my heroes.  In terms of modern politics, I consider him the most moral, courageous, humble, and beloved President since Abraham Lincoln.  As for this book, it is an excellent read for anyone who wants a good overview of Reagan's life....<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/38014549">more...</a>]]></body>

His road to the presidency was certainly unique, starting with a humble upbringing and then an acting career.
