Ronald Reagan: Fate, Freedom, and the Making of History
In this bold, revisionist biography, distinguished historian John Patrick Diggins shows that Ronald Reagan, in his distrust of big government, his pursuit of libertarian ideals, and his negotiations with Gorbachev, was a far more active and sophisticated president than we previously knew. Affirming the fortieth president to be an exemplar of the truest conservative values, Diggins identifies Reagan as the 'Emersonian President,' who believed that power is best when it resides in people, not government (Library Journal).
