Title: An Insider's Portrait
Review: One interesting aspect of this book is Noonan's increased respect and appreciation for Ronald Reagan since she penned her previous title, What I Saw at the Revolution. Noonan's evolution mirrors that of America and, indeed, the world, especially affirming for those of us who knew all along what a great man Reagan is. This latest book is fascinating; I've bought and read more than fifty hardcover books on Reagan and this still held my interest. Part is Noonan's superbly intimate writing, part is her unique perspective, part is the recent conversations with former Reagan insiders where Noonan elicits some really interesting and novel responses (including from President George W. Bush). The book is at once a hard-to-put-down page turner, but also one you'll want to savor, turning back pages to re-read sections that draw out happy memories or emotional responses. Thanks for this book Peggy, and also, thanks for telling our Forever President that we love him still.
