Ronald Reagan Our 40th President

Ronald Reagan Our 40th President

From the author of Forest Gump, The Aviators, and The Generals...
He was one of Americaâ€™s true greats. As president, he changed the world, developing a successful strategy for defeating Communism, toppling the Soviet Union, and liberating Eastern Europe (while hardly firing a shot). And just as important, he restored an America that had found itself mired in a malaise of falling living standards, moral decay, and what seemed like inevitable decline.

Though he was our oldest president, Reagan acted as a tonic, rejuvenating Americaâ€™s economy, restoring her confidence, and attracting a majority of young voters won over by his vision of making America once again a shining city on a hill.

In this superlative biography for young adults, bestselling author Winston GroomÂ—author of Forrest GumpÂ—gives us the full Reagan, from his Midwestern American boyhood, to his early career as a radio sports announcer, to his days as a Hollywood star and his extraordinary political career as a union leader, governor of California, and president of the United States.

Covering the gamut of Reaganâ€™s dramatic life, Ronald Reagan: Our 40th President is essential reading, as inspiring as its subject.
