Alterman, Eric | January 5, 1998 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on Dinesh D'Souza's new book, "Ronald Reagan: how an Ordinary Man Became an Extraordinary Leader." The book describes the personal life of the former U.S. President Ronald Reagan. The author states that he is a successful man. He wanted the deficit to go down and it did. Reagan's household headaches only made him seem more normal, just another guy who cherished an ideal of family bliss even while he was divorced and had strained relationships with the children. In this respect, as in many others, an extraordinary man like Reagan never seemed more ordinary to his fellow citizens.
