“Reads at times like a grand historical drama . . . complete with
romance and adventure and tragic characters; a thrilling survey of
what we might have thought to be familiar history but which appears
here quite transformed.”
—Times Literary Supplement
“Excellent . . . [Hayward] acknowledges Mr. Reagan’s sunny
personality and ease in public, but he dismisses these as
significant factors in his election. What mattered was Mr. Reagan’s
unflinching conservatism and strong character, coupled with
liberalism’s failures.”
—Wall Street Journal
“Grand and fascinating history . . . goes far toward making the
definitive historical case for Reagan’s greatness.”
—National Review
