Customer Reviews

An excellent memoir

This book is certainly a landmark in political autobiography: not only for its sheer size (1138 pages excluding the bibliography ) but also for its depth of knowledge and information on foreign policy during the Reagan era. The prose can be tedious and the detail at times is exhaustive, but the book is priceless and could serve as an excellent source for anyone interested in politics in general. Highly recommended.
