During his two terms as the fortieth president of the United States, Ronald Reagan kept a daily diary in which he recorded, by hand, his innermost thoughts and observations on the extraordinary, the historic, and the routine day-to-day occurrences of his presidency. Now, nearly two decades after he left office, this remarkable record-the only daily presidential diary in American history-is available for the first time.
The Reagan Diaries reveals more than just Reagan's political experiences: many entries are concerned with the president's private thoughts and feelings-his love and devotion for Nancy Reagan and their family, his belief in God. To read these diaries-filled with Reagan's trademark wit, sharp intelligence, and humor-is to gain a unique understanding of one of the most beloved occupants of the Oval Office in American history.
美國第40任總統(tǒng)羅納德·里根在他的第二次任期內(nèi),保留了一本手寫日記。日記中,他記錄了當(dāng)時內(nèi)心深處的想法以及對那些在他任職期內(nèi)發(fā)生的特別事件、歷史事件、日常瑣事的觀察和思考。在他離任近二十年之后,美國歷史上第一本總統(tǒng)日記將首次向外界公開。
里根日記不僅僅向世人公開他的政治經(jīng)歷,而大部分的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于里根的個人思索和感受,并記錄了對妻子南西·里根的愛、對家庭的愛,還有他對上帝的虔誠信仰。這本日記充分表現(xiàn)出里根的性格特點、標(biāo)志性的智慧、敏銳的才智以及風(fēng)趣的幽默。讀者一定能通過閱讀這本日記獲得對這位美國歷史上最受歡迎的白宮主人不一樣的理解和感悟。
