Introduces the fortieth president of the United States and profiles his private, military, and political careers. Most presidents have careers in politics, the military, or business before being elected to the nation's highest office. Ronald Reagan spent the first half of his life as a Hollywood actor. He was also the oldest man elected president and the first to survive a serious injury suffered during an assassination attempt. Reagan's life was unconventional for a politician, and his eight years as president dramatically altered life and politics in the United States. Great Communicator: The Story of Ronald Reagan introduces the fortieth president to a new generation of readers.
