Editedby Douglas Brinkley, editor of #1 <em>NewYork Times</em> bestseller <em>The ReaganDiaries</em>, this indispensible Reagan retrospective is perfect for fathers, graduates, and anyone looking to find inspiration in the thoughts and musingsof a great American leader<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>Ronald Reagan's <em>The Notes</em> is a fascinating window into the mind of the fortieth president and the thinkers to whom he turned for advice, humor, and hope. The book includes Reagan's own writing and his favorite quotations, proverbs, and excerpts from speeches and literature. Reagan sought wisdom from a wide-ranging set of political figures, philosophers, and writers, including Abraham Lincoln, Daniel Webster, and Thomas Jefferson, as well as Mahatma Gandhi, Mark Twain, and Thomas Wolfe.</p> <p>While the bestselling Reagan Diaries detailed daily life inside the Oval Office, <em>The Notes</em> encapsulates reflections on work, marriage, and family and reveals a view of the president that has rarely been seen before. Historic and illuminating, <em>The Notes</em> is a remarkable collection of the thoughts of one of our most beloved presidents.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"It's amazing what nuggets of information you can unearth deep within a book as jampacked as <em>The Reagan Diaries</em>."--<strong>Walter Pincus, <em>The Washington Post</em></strong><br><br>"Reading these diaries, Americans will find it easier to understand how Reagan did what he did for so long: by steady work, and a steadfast commitment to the job at hand. . . . They paint a portrait of a president who was engaged by his job and had a healthy perspective on power."--<strong>Jon Meacham, <em>Newsweek</em></strong><br><br>"The chief executive who emerges from these pages has a capacious attention to and knowledge of this country and the world. . . . Reagan the diarist is at home with himself, unself-consciously comfortable. . . . Two things run through the diaries like a thread: One is a kind of gee-whiz everyman's delight in finding himself in such interesting and enjoyable circumstances; the other is his love for and reliance on Nancy."--<strong>Tim Rutten, <em>The Los Angeles Times</em></strong><br><br>"These are amusing and enlightening diaries. . . . I quite simply couldn't put them down."--<strong>Christopher Hitchens, <em>The Times</em></strong><br><br>"Now with the discovery of his note cards, we can better appreciate just how hard Reagan himself labored to be clear and convincing--and, yes, sometimes funny--to his many audiences."--<b><i>The American Spectator</i></b><br><br>"The book offers a window into the mind of the nation's 40th president and displays the effort he made behind the scenes to hone his performance as a speechmaker and storyteller driving home a conservative political philosophy."--<b><i>USA Today</i></b><br><br>"These notes are wonderful things. . . . Although a few recent books have proclaimed to have finally uncovered the real Reagan, there's a chance we'll never get any closer than in these scribbles, which reveal so much."--<b>Christopher Buckley, <i>Bloomberg News</i></b><br><br>"This is a book to return to often and sample the collected wisdom found there that buttressed a remarkable man's vision."--<b><i>The Washington Times</i></b><br><br>"This volume provides an illuminating glimpse into Reagan's mind. . . . The entries show the directness of Reagan's thought and his uncanny ability to make a point."--<b><i>The Daily</i></b><br>
