Synopsis

A behind-the-scenes look at one of the most influential presidents in American history.

For the first time in presidential history, the major appointees of a president have come together to share stories and memories of their president, Ronald Reagan. These are never-before-told personal anecdotes from 81 of President Reagan's appointees.

Former President George H.W. Bush, Colin Powell, Elizabeth Dole, Steve Forbes, James Baker, and Edwin Meese discuss their relationship with the 40th President of the United States. Democrats and Republicans can agree that Ronald Reagan possessed remarkable humor, courtesy, and consideration for others, and natural charm, while displaying the toughness that brought an end to the Cold War with the Soviet Union.

Heartfelt and often moving, these stories demonstrate the side of President Reagan few had the opportunity to personally experience. Read his speeches, feel his impact, and truly realize why Ronald Reagan was one of our most influential presidents in history.
