Ronald Reagan's life is the epitome of the American Dream. From college football letterman to movie star, from television host and corporate spokesman to Governor and President, this extraordinary man succeeded at everything he attempted. And in the process became an idol to millions. Now James Spada presents the story of Reagan's life in over 350 photographs with extended anecdotal captions. Two-thirds of these images have never been published before: we see Reagan as a little boy in his mother's Sunday School class; welcoming home GIs with Bette Davis; helping his daughter prepare for a ballet recital; and celebrating the birth of his son with Nancy. In a wonderful assortment of unseen images from his presidential library, we see every aspect of this president, from building a snowman with his grandson on the White House lawn to anguishing over the deaths of Marines in Beruit. In the style of JACKIE: HER LIFE IN PICTURES, these images - and the balanced, evocative text that accompanies them - provide new insights into a man whose lifetime of achievement is truly remarkable.
