Reagan:The Life

In this new biography, author H. W. Brands brilliantly establishes Ronald Reagan as one of the two greatest presidents of the twentieth century, a true peer to Franklin Roosevelt.

Employing archival sources not available to previous biographers and drawing on dozens of interviews with surviving members of Reagan’s administration, Brands has crafted a richly detailed narrative of the presidential years.

Reagan is a storytelling triumph, an irresistible portrait of an underestimated politician whose pragmatic leadership and steadfast vision transformed the nation.

“Superb… it is hard to imagine a biography of Ronal Reagan that could be more thorough, evenhanded and insightful” – Dallas Morning News.
