Download or read book Reagan In His Own Hand written by Ronald Reagan and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2001-10-09 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the eight years that Ronald Reagan served as president of the United States, a period of sustained economic prosperity and increased American power on the world stage, many of his advisers claimed authorship of the ideas that comprised 'the Reagan revolution.' The press, in turn, lent credence to the idea that President Reagan was merely a skilled communicator of those ideas, the consummate actor, not the director or producer. Few people realised that Reagan had left a paper trail of original writings that make clear he was the intellectual powerhouse behind his administration's landmark policies. Hidden in archives for more than twenty years, Reagan's pre-presidential writings reveal an active mind wrestling with the problems of a sluggish economy, social pathologies, welfare, reform and the Cold War struggle with the Soviet Union. Selected and annotated by three leading scholars, two of whom were among Reagan's principal domestic-policy advisers, these writings unlock the puzzle of the man so many historians have tried to comprehend, with so little success. A publishing landmark, REAGAN, IN HIS OWN HAND will redefine the way we think about American history of the past quarter-century, and about the fortieth American president.

Book excerpt: With a foreword from Senator Marco Rubio, a stirring collection of Ronald Reagan's most inspiring speeches, offering his timeless wisdom and guidance for our day. In his 1989 farewell address, Ronald Reagan said, "I wasn't a great communicator, but I communicated great things, and they didn't spring full bloom from my brow, they came from the heart of a great nation--from our experience, our wisdom, and our belief in principles that have guided us for two centuries." The Heart of a Great Nation brings together Reagan's most powerful speeches, as relevant to our chaotic world as they were when he first gave them. In a period of our country's history consumed by economic stagnation, national instability, and the looming threat of communism, Reagan spoke directly to the hearts of everyday Americans. His wisdom on matters of family, freedom, and nationhood helped guide the country back to its founding principles and ushered in an era of prosperity and national pride. Today, as we find our country treading similar ground, Reagan's wisdom speaks to us once again, offering guidance to everyone looking to navigate the present and remember the legacy of this great nation--which can one day be reclaimed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With twenty-eight speeches spanning the Reagan era, The Greatest Speeches of Ronald Reagan provides readers with a direct source into President Reagan's profound belief in God, freedom, individualism, limited government, and his great love for his country. Ronald Wilson Reagan, the fortieth president of the United States, was also one of America's greatest orators. Known as "The Great Communicator," he shared his vision of the greatness of America while guiding the nation to an unprecedented prosperity and renewed vigor. When President Reagan assumed the presidency in 1981, America's economy ebbed with 12 percent inflation and 8 million unemployed. Reagan's predecessor spoke of a national "malaise". Abroad, America's adversary, the Soviet Union, was expanding its influence. The Soviet Union's nuclear weapons capability surpassed that of the United States and previous nuclear arms treaties were failures. President Reagan's goals were simple: To reduce the size of the federal government Lower taxes Stabilize the economy Restore the belief of the American people in their government Win the Cold War When President Reagan left office in 1989, these goals had been achieved: Americans were enjoying the longest uninterrupted span of prosperity in the nation's history. After a massive military build-up, the largest in peacetime, President Reagan had negotiated a nuclear arms treaty that greatly reduced the threat of nuclear war. By expanding the military, he achieved peace through strength and set the stage for the demise of the Soviet Union. From the time he arrived on the political scene in 1964-throughout his presidency and beyond, Ronald Reagan used his speeches to inspire and reinvigorate America. When he spoke, Reagan said he was preaching a sermon. The American people saw his vision of America and his dreams for the future, and they overwhelmingly responded; he was re-elected in 1984 by the largest number of electoral votes in the nation's history. In this collection of twenty-eight speeches spanning the Reagan era, with an Introduction from his son, Michael Reagan, you may read for yourself his inspirational sermons. From his first speech in the political arena in 1964 to his Last Letter to America, informing Americans of his Alzheimer's disease, Ronald Reagan's words show a profound belief in God, freedom, individualism, limited government, and his great love for his country.
