This biography establishes a rationale for the Reagan's motives discussing how thinkers such as Plato and Adam Smith influenced him. He points to three historical forces that shaped Reagan’s political philosophy: Christian values, particularly the concept of a universal kingdom of God; America’s firm belief in freedom as the greatest political value and its aversion to strong centralized government; and the appeasement era of World War II, which stimulated Reagan’s aggressive and confrontational foreign policy. Hardcover, 248 pages. Written by David T. Byrne
