A compelling insider's account by the trusted adviser and confidante to America's presidential giants and political legends as he draws the curtains back on his most private moments with Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon during revolutionary changes in our economy, politics, communications, foreign policy, and culture.



'Ken Khachigian has written the most lucid, most important work about the postwar period. For an inside look at how ugly politics can be—and how noble—you cannot miss this book. I still love Ken after fifty years and you will, too, when you read this jewel of a memoir.' —Ben Stein, economist, law professor, multi-Emmy-awarded actor, speechwriter for presidents Nixon and Ford, novelist, and screenwriter



'This is essential reading for anyone wanting to know how Ronald Reagan shaped his crusading message of economic growth through tax cuts and limited government. Khachigian's is a fascinating account by one who takes you into the rooms where the decisions were made.' —Larry Kudlow, host of Fox Business Network's Kudlow and former director, National Economic Council
