Unknown Author

4.9/5 (10967 ratings)

Description:Some called the president lazy, other uninterested in daily details; some said he was a brilliant delegator of responsibility. Whatever the viewpoints, it is unquestionably true that the men around Ronald Reagan played an unprecedented role in shaping and controlling the nation's foreign and domestic policy.In this explosive book, Schieffer and Gates, working with an extensive network of sources and some hitherto secret materials, show just who these men were and just how they influenced both the President and the country. You will read the 1980 memorandum dividing up the real power of the presidency between Edwin Meese and James Baker; you will understand why a man as young as Michael Deaver was able to wield such enormous power; you will witness an astonishing Oval Office session on the defense budget immediately after Gramm-Rudman was passed. And you will meet, in intimate, sometimes painful, detail, no only Deaver and Baker but such men as Donald Regan, William Caseey, Alexander Haig, and John Poindexter--and what you read will change your vision of the decade.For most of all, The Acting President is a history of the Reagan administrations--not what we were told was happening, but what really happened.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
