Su questo libro

Recensione:

"Wynton Hall understands what that greatest of recent Republicans, Ronald Reagan, understood: words matter. Ideas are communicated by words––the right words. It′s not just what you say but how you say it. This is hardly a simple task."
Paul Kengor, professor, Grove City College, author of God and Ronald Reagan and The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism

"In this stimulating book, Wynton Hall underscores a few of those Republicans who have done the job better than anyone, rightly beginning with Abraham Lincoln and continuing with a few notable surprises. This book is a must for the bookshelf of not just any well–informed Republican, but anyone interested in effective communication."
Paul Kengor, professor, Grove City College, author of God and Ronald Reagan and The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism
