Dalla quarta di copertina

Ronald Reagan's former Deputy Chief of Staff and close personal friend, Michael Deaver, first met the president-to-be during Reagan's successful campaign for Governor of California in 1966. It was the beginning of a professional association that would last for more than twenty consecutive years -- and a respect and friendship that remained strong right up to the president's death. Now the man whom the late president publicly referred to as his "brother" offers an insightful, eye-opening, deeply affectionate portrait of a great leader who has remained a mystery even to the public that adored him. It is an intimate journey through an extraordinary era, told by the ally who loyally stood by the able captain who piloted his country to new heights of prosperity, confidence, and peace.
