For purposes of telling Ronald Reagan`s life story, Edmund Morris has created a fictional persona, based on himself, whose many encounters throughout Reagan`s life provide a narrative thread and yield insights and comments by and about his subject. This biography is based on the privileged access granted to Morris as Reagan`s official biographer, including his presence behind the scenes and at official duties, and on his many conversations with the President and others. Morris tells of Reagan`s boyhood and schooling, his success in Hollywood, and his marriages and family life. He reviews his public life as a spokesperson for conservatism, as governor of California, and as President of the United States. Morris is known for the Pulitzer Prize-winning biography THE RISE OF THEODORE ROOSEVELT. more details ... |
