He has written for numerous magazines.This is not a political biography—that's a job best left for others.  Neither does this book pretend to be an encyclopedic recounting of his  entire life. It is simply my attempt to come to grips with the father  with whom I grew up, with a public figure both revered and reviled and,  most important, with a human being in all his stubborn enigma. Everyone  thinks he knows Ronald Reagan, but those who truly knew him best still  grapple with the enduring mystery of his inner character. I'm hoping  that some light might penetrate that mystery if I can focus on the man I  knew through the lens of his early, formative years.","brand":"Plume","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46299940716773,"sku":"NP9780452297555","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780452297555.jpg?v=1767733259","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/my-father-at-100-isbn-9780452297555","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
