The acting president

Book • 1989
The book explores how Ronald Reagan's closest advisors—including Edwin Meese, Donald Regan, John Poindexter, James Baker, Alexander Haig, and James Watt—influenced domestic and foreign policy decisions.

Written shortly after Reagan's presidency, it provides a critical journalistic perspective on the administration's inner workings, though some reviewers note its contemporaneous limitations in assessing long-term impacts.
