A scathing memoir by Patti Davis, first-born child of Nancy and Ronald Reagan.
The daughter of two actors, Nancy Davis and Ronald Reagan, Patti Davis grew up in the world of entertainment and politics. Her mother abandoned a career in film and television as her husband transitioned from the bright and glamourous lights of Hollywood to the glaring scrutiny of public service, first as governor of California and ultimately as president of the United States. As the first child of Ronald and Nancy Reagan, Patti offers an insider's view of what it was like growing up Reagan. She details her father's emotional abandonment and her mother's cruelty, as well as the family's bitter rivalries and dark secrets. A scathing look at life in the shadow of two high-profile figures, The Way I See It is a compelling listen.
