The Age of Reagan: The Fall of the Old Liberal Order, 1964-1980 Tapa dura - 2001

"Readers both conservative and liberal can learn much about our times and our leaders from this work."
—Michael Barone, U.S. News & World Report
"A patient and comprehensive account of domestic and foreign policy development is wonderfully useful, and we have Steven Hayward to thank for casting light on Reagan, who arrived at the White House in 1981 with a purposeful gleam in his eye recalling Lenin arriving at the Finland Station."
—William F. Buckley Jr.
"Steven Hayward has given us a fascinating and extremely readable book about a unique era in american politics. His meticulous research and perceptive insights provide an informative and entertaining account of Ronald Reagan's rise from Hollywood to the presidency, as well as an in-depth understanding of the times in which that ascent occurred."
—Edwin Meese III, Ronald Reagan Distinguished Fellow, the Heritage Foundation
"Steven Hayward gets two big things right in this book: Ronald Reagan and the age he came to dominate. It is a powerful story, carefully researched and well told."
—Peter Hannaford, author and presidential scholar
"The Age of Reagan is enormously engaging. I found myself arguing and thinking my way through its very readable pages."
—Fred Siegel, professor of history, the Cooper Union, and author of The Future Once Happened Here and Troubled Journey: From Pearl Harbor to Reagan
"A brilliant work of political history and analysis. It is the first truly successful effort to treat the phenomenon of Ronald Reagan within a broader historical framework. Most valuable of all is the effort to place the specific events of that epoch in a meaningful and intellectually provocative theoretical context."
—Marc Landy, professor of politics, Boston College, and coauthor of Presidential Greatness
