4 unusual facts about The Reagan Diaries


The Reagan Diaries

Ronald Reagan was one of five American Presidents to have kept a consistent diary as President, and the only one to record accounts of his life every day, never neglecting an entry (except when he was in the hospital recovering from an assassination attempt).

The Reagan Diaries is an edited version of diaries written by President Ronald Reagan while in the White House.

The President writes openly about his relationship with his children, once writing that he refused to talk to his son, Ron, and about his relationship, love, devotion, and adoration for his wife.

The book is edited by Douglas Brinkley, while the full, unedited diaries were published in 2009.
