Blurb:
No matter what else was going on in his life or where he was—traveling
to make movies, at the White House, or sometimes just across the room—Ronald
Reagan wrote letters to Nancy Reagan, to express his love, thoughts, and
feelings, and to stay in touch. Through these extraordinary letters and
reflections, the private character and life of an American president and his
first lady are revealed. Nancy Reagan reflects with love and insight on the
letters, on her husband, and on the many phases of their life together. A love
story spanning half a century and the private life of this classic American
couple come vividly alive in this rare and inspiring book.
Review:
This book by Nancy
Reagan provides sincere insight into the extraordinary relationship of Nancy and
Ronald Reagan as documented primarily by his love letters written to her
throughout a span of almost fifty years.
All politics aside in his private life, Ronald Reagan’s own words reveal
his romantic self as Husband first, President second. He was a prolific writer
to the love of his life, and his personal sentiments uncover
a man known only to his wife. Ronald
Reagan was loving and witty, and the most comfortable as a father and family
man.
The best biographies
always include at least a sampling of private letters written by the person to
support character qualities. Personal
letters to family members and friends contain a fundamental element that cannot
be found in any other format, not even a private journal. The true person is not always revealed in
journal form. One may make life anything
desired, incorporate all pretensions, and record dreams as realistic when
writing in one’s own journal. But to those
who best know the person, the writer cannot venture to do the same. One may certainly share dreams with family and
friends in letters, but need to relate them as such in order to maintain
integrity. Personal letters come closest
to reflecting the authentic individual. I Love You, Ronnie has all the elements
of devoted true love, and I highly recommend it.

You’ll notice we always
include the publisher’s buy link. That’s
because authors usually receive 40% of the book price from the publisher. Editors and cover artists usually receive
about 5%. When you buy a book from
Amazon, Barnes & Noble or another third-party vendor, they take a hefty cut
and the author, editors and cover artists receive their cuts from what is left. So, if a book costs $5.99 at E-Book
Publisher.com and you buy from there, the author will receive about $2.40. If you buy the book at Amazon, the author
will receive about $0.83.
