In this thoughtful and intimate memoir, Ron Reagan embarks on a journey to understand a fascinating and often baffling man, his father, one of the most popular and beloved presidents in American history, Ronald Reagan. To be published on the centenary of President Reagan’s birth, this book is not a tabloid tell-all or a political biography. Part family history, part evocation of an earlier America, it is a heartfelt portrait by a cherished son, placing Ronald Reagan in the context of his early life, examining the ways he may have carried the values of that older America, and tracing the triumphs and tribulations of his youth into his later life and political career.
