Reagan's Revolution: The Untold Story of the Campaign That Started It All
by Craig Shirley
A great narrative of the campaign that changed America
Craig Shirley has written a first class narrative of recent history in Reagan's Revolution.
It covers the 1976 Republican primary campaign, in which former California Governor Reagan challenged Republican incumbent Gerald R. Ford-- the only man to serve as American President who was never elected President or Vice-President.
Shirley does a good job of telling the story from each side of the the face-off, including the presence of current Bush administration members Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld, who were members of the Ford administration.
A great work that provides insight into an important event in American history that is not often covered in such depth.
Shirley's work is also easily readable, often reading like a good novel.
