Description: For The Record: From Wall Street to Washington by Donald T. Regan (1988) Editorial Reviews Product Description From Library Journal For the Record has been propelled to the best-seller list because Regan reveals the role that Nancy Reagan and her astrologer play in controlling the presidential agenda. However, those hoping to be titillated by lengthy exposes and gossip will be disappointed. Instead, the former secretary of treasury and presidential chief of staff thoughtfully and passionately recounts his six years as an operative in the Reagan Revolution, which ended when he was forced out during the Iran-Contra debacle. Despite criticizing the administration for pandering to the media, Regan gives the president high marks and admiration. While faulting many White House aides for lacking integrity, Regan does not indulge in the sophomoric attacks of Larry Speakes in Speaking Out. An excellent complement to Martin Anderson's policy-oriented Revolution. Review: Regan vs. Reagan - An Episode From The Nation's Past!!! This is a blast from the past. I read it many years ago, but thought I should review it just in case someone wanted to get a glimpse into a bygone era of American politics. The Reagan administration is seen by many as one that accomplished much, and how it accomplished what it did is an interesting story, a story that should be told from more than the normal perspective of Reagan worshipers. Regan is not a Reagan hater, but rather someone who has a more somber vision of what occurred. Yes, this did result from the fact that he was burnt by some in the administration, but he still did observe the fact that Reagan was a delegator who trusted people too much. Regan also highlights how a lack of direction created unease while he served as the Secretary of the Treasury. All in all, a great insight into the presidential politics of the 1980s.
