Synopsis In Ronald Reagan's own words, these diary entries provide an up-close and personal account of how the 40th president viewed his daily life, public and private. His love of his wife, Nancy; his relations with world leaders; his acerbic view of the press; and his encounters with everyday Americans comprise this record of the thoughts of "the great communicator," as he was called, and the three thousand days that made history. Historian David Brinkley assembled these entries and provides commentary.

Industry Reviews "Complicated matters of state are reduced to their essence, jostling for prominence in the late president's mind with infinitely more mundane matters." (05/03/2007)
"But what emerges above all from these entries is how sweet a man Reagan remained, despite a long life in the caustic worlds of Hollywood and politics." (05/23/2007)
"Taken in all, [THE REAGAN DIARIES] paint a portrait of a president who was engaged by his job and had a healthy perspective on power." (06/04/2007)
"[T]his volume tells us more about Ronald Reagan than many of his biographies. Besides which, not a few interpretive bits of gold are sprinkled amid the grit and gravel of diplomatic niceties, Congressional consultations and after-dinner entertainments." (06/17/2007)
