内容説明

Michael Deaver's relationship with Ronald Reagan began with the former President's 1966 campaign for governor of California, and in the 35 years since their first meeting he has gained an understanding of the inner Reagan equalled by very few. Deaver had unprecedented access to Reagan throughout the President's political career, giving him unsurpassed insight. Now he offers his personal memories of Ronald Reagan the perfectionist, the communicator, the world leader, and the friend, including the qualities and personal traits that made him one of the most successful and popular Presidents of the 20th century. Deaver discusses Reagan's deep spiritual sense of purpose, and shows how he changed after he was shot, including the surprising ways the assassination attempt influenced his dealings with the Soviet Union. Warm, rich in historical detail, and intensely personal, A Different Drummer sheds remarkable new light on an American icon. Deaver tells the story of Nancy Reagan in her finest hour, as the caregiver for her husband during his courageous battle with Alzheimer's disease, and the toll it has taken on her family. Included are never-before-published excerpts from Reagan's personal letters to people across America.
