The Screen Greats: Ronald Reagan

ronald reagan [ the screen greats] by Janice Anderson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book reviews the movies that Ronald Reagan was in. It is a little bit choppy. I think if Anderson would have divided the movies into sections instead of running them together it would have been a better read. It is hard to believe that Reagan was in so many movies and TV shows. The list below contains all the movies and TV shows that Reagan was in. Please note some are clips of him when he became President. If you are a Reagan fan then you will enjoy this book.
