Complete Summary: Killing Reagan: by Bill O’Reilly | The Violent Assault That Changed a Presidency

by Busy People Reads

This chapter-by-chapter summary of Killing Reagan by Bill O'Reilly provides you with all the main concepts from this great book in the shortest amount of time with the exact information and strategies you need. “Just two months into his presidency, Ronald Reagan lay near death after a gunman's bullet came within inches of his heart. His recovery was nothing short of remarkable -- or so it seemed. But Reagan was grievously injured, forcing him to encounter a challenge that few men ever face. Could he silently overcome his traumatic experience while at the same time carrying out the duties of the most powerful man in the world? Told in the same riveting fashion as Killing Lincoln, Killing Kennedy, Killing Jesus, and Killing Patton, Killing Reagan reaches back to the golden days of Hollywood, where Reagan found both fame and heartbreak, up through the years in the California governor's mansion, and finally to the White House, where he presided over boom years and the fall of the Iron Curtain. But it was John Hinckley Jr.'s attack on him that precipitated President Reagan's most heroic actions. In Killing Reagan, O'Reilly and Dugard take readers behind the scenes, creating an unforgettable portrait of a great man operating in violent times.” “In my view 'Killing The Violent Assault That Changed a Presidency' is a thoughtful, well-written and extremely enjoyable book. This would be a great choice for history buffs, political junkies and general audiences alike. Highly recommended!” “Bill O'Reilly does a good job of capturing times in Reagan's private and political life with a smooth and fast-paced writing style. The book gave me more insight into historical events and I learned more about the man himself. If you are a fan of Ronald Reagan's, I think you will greatly enjoy this book.” “I have read all the other O'Reilly books, but this was my favorite!”
