I was slightly disappointed that this was mostly Nancy's reminiscences, instead of actual letters, but it was still interesting to read. Quite the love story. (

Meh, way too much mush for my taste. I'm not sure what exactly I was expecting when I bought this book, but I definitely would have liked more history, more background. I get it, I get it, Nancy - you two were MADLY in luv. Awesome. Good for ya. Yawn. (

The letters of Ronald Reagan to Nancy Reagan from the 1950's through the 1990's.

I don't think anyone could help being a little bit in love with Ronald Reagan after reading this book. The expressions of his love for Nancy are so disarming, disingenuous and powerful that they gave me almost constant chills.

I gave it four stars instead of five because the reproductions of his handwritten notes are sometimes separated by several pages from where the words are reproduced in the text, so sometimes I struggled to decipher his handwriting only to find the note typed out in her narrative several pages later.

A sweet, sweet testament to an iconic love story. Nancy Reagan writes of her romance with Ronald Reagan. Interspersed between Nancy's musings are letters, cards, and telegrams written by "Ronnie" to his beloved wife. The love which they felt for one another is evident on every single page. Included are many pictures as well as photos of the original letters. A touching read celebrating a great romance. (
