Description of Pictures: Last Act: The Final Years and Emerging Legacy of Ronald Reagan featuring author Craig Shirley
His name in American politics is more cited than any other president. Both the Republican and Democratic parties are radically different today, mainly as a result of Ronald Reagan and the force of his ideas. No 20th Century president shaped the American political landscape so profoundly.
In his newest book, Last Act, Craig Shirley chronicles the important final chapter in Reagan’s life that no one has thus far covered. To tell this story, he secured the complete, exclusive, and enthusiastic support of the Reagan Foundation and Library and spent considerable time three reviewing sealed files and confidential information.
Last Act offers interesting and heretofore untold anecdotes about the President, Mrs. Reagan, their pleasure at retirement, the onslaught of the awful Alzheimer's and how he and Mrs. Reagan dealt with the diagnosis, the slow demise, the extensive plans for a state funeral, the outpouring from the nation – which stunned the political establishment – the Reagan legacy, and how his shadow looms more and more over the Republican Party, Washington, the culture of America, and the world.
Craig Shirley, President of Shirley & Banister Public Affairs, is the author of two critically praised bestsellers about Ronald Reagan, Rendezvous with Destiny and Reagan's Revolution, as well as the New York Times best-selling history December 1941.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.)
I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
