Why read it?

Karen Tumulty has written the definitive biography of Nancy Reagan.

I was especially drawn to the book by the insights Karen Tumulty provides about the Sacramento during Reagan’s time as governor, and about the Reagan’s California years before and after the presidency. Karen Tumulty’s description of Nancy Reagan’s years after Ronald Reagan’s death is especially compelling.
From Dan's list on California-themed stories that matter.
