They called him the “Great Communicator,” and by voicing the concerns of the average American, Ronald Reagan came to embody an era. Yet nothing was more unlikely than the ascent of this working-class, small-town Illinois boy to become a dominant force in politics.
In this thrilling compact biography, Michael Dawkins puts the reader alongside Reagan step-by-step on his rise to the top: his abortive Hollywood career, including his controversial tenure as SAG president and his role in exposing Hollywood communists; the “Time for Choosing” speech that rocketed him to national fame; his surprising electoral success in the race to be California’s governor; and his long struggle with Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford for control of the Republican Party. When Reagan finally claims the presidency, we experience anew the triumphs of Grenada and the decline of the Soviet Union, the sorrows of Beirut and Chernobyl, the bitter controversy of Iran-Contra, and the shock of the John Hinckley shooting. Reagan: The Last Great Republican ultimately captures Reagan at both his best and his worst, and demonstrates how his complex legacy continues to define our nation.
