Book Review-The Faith of Ronald Reagan

I recently received a copy of “The Faith of Ronald Reagan”.  I was very excited to read this book, because Reagan is someone who I find very fascinating.  The book goes through different points in the President’s life and recalls parts that impacted his life, through his faith.  It is based on personal accounts either through Regan’s writings or close friends’ recollections. 

 

While I did find the book very interesting, the writing style was not my favorite.  I could tell the writer had a deep affection for the President, but it came across as more of an admiration as a child admires their elders.  I learned a lot of interesting facts about the president, and was very encouraged by the recounts of the assassination attempt, and how Reagan’s faith sustained him.

I would recommend this book, because it is full of interesting facts, but the reader needs to be aware of the writing style.  It is more of a conversational style than informative.
