Review # 1 was written on 2008-04-15 00:00:00 Brian Hooper This is a really thick book. since I'm reading it for my history class it will take me forever to finish it. I read like a half chapter a day.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-07-28 00:00:00 James Maddox Paul Berman says of John Patrick Diggins, "He was the most philosophical-minded of the American historians." I think that is pretty well demonstrated in this book which, although primarily biography, lays out some interesting arguments about Reagan's political and religious philosophies. This made it hard to follow in spots, and it is a book worth reading more than once (and having in one's personal library). I have reread portions of chapters 8 and 9, and intend to reread chapter 7 before I return this book to the library.
