Political Bookworm recommendations from Washington Post include new Reagan bio by his liberal son
h/t The Progressive Reader: Steven Levingston, "Political Bookworm" blogger for The Washington Post recommends My Father at 100, the upcoming biography of former President Ronald Reagan written by Reagan's liberal son Ron Reagan (who once hosted a radio show on the defunct Air America Radio network). That book, according to Amazon.com's listing, is to be released January 18. One revelation from the book, that Nancy waited five years post-diagnosis to tell Ronald that he had dementia, has generated buzz here on DU.

Levingston also promoted the new books by Donald Rumsfeld, Scott Brown, Tim Pawlenty, and Mike Huckabee. :puke: But wait! For something better than right-wing bargain-bin drivel, check out Inside WikiLeaks: My Time with Julian Assange at the World’s Most Dangerous Website by Daniel Domscheit-Berg, TBR on Feb 15. Or:
- Our Last Best Chance: Peace in a Time of Peril by King Abdullah II of Jordan, Feb. 22
- Unfamiliar Fishes by Sarah Vowell (it's a book about Hawaii written by someone from the public radio show This American Life)
- The Origins of Political Order: From Prehuman Times to the French Revolution by Francis Fukuyama, April 12
- On China by Henry Kissinger, May 17

1. Did RR jr. say that he first saw the signs of AD in 1983? In his dad's first term?
And then he ran again and won?

How dumb are we?
