In The President Will See You Now, devoted Reagan insider Peggy Grande shares behind-the-scenes stories, intimate moments, and insights into one of America's most beloved presidents. Grande, who started in the Office of Ronald Reagan as a college student and earned her way into a coveted role as the president's Executive Assistant, offers an unparalleled perspective on the post-presidency of a political icon.
Grande's stories and never-before-seen photos show a unique, private side to a public figure and leader who reshaped conservatism, ushered in an era of prosperity, and helped spur the end of the Cold War. Grande reveals what day-to-day life was like in Reagan's California office, including the former president's relationship with the First Lady and his interactions with friends, world leaders, and everyday Americans. Grande recalls how Reagan kept a vigorous schedule for years after he left the White House, his robust engagement with others, and ongoing political advocacy. Despite his eventual Alzheimer's diagnosis, Grande shows how Ronald Reagan remained true to core beliefs, his gentlemanly kindness, and his undying hope for his country.
Today the Reagan legacy looms over American politics more than ever. Grande reminds listeners why: When Ronald Reagan was president, we not only loved ourselves but also loved America, and the American values he represented: Faith, optimism, and patriotism.

I'd really recommend it to anyone who is an Executive Assistant, as I am. It is an inspiration to listen to how dedicated Peggy was to President Reagan and to doing her job well, and it's a good reminder of how much of an effect we can really have on those whom we support.Inspiring book!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Depending on the friend, yes. Not many people I know listen to the memoirs of assistants to presidents, so it is not for just anyone. But for someone like me who has read and loves to know about the presidents and the people around them, this is one of the best books I have ever read on the subject.What other book might you compare The President Will See You Now to and why?
Alyssa Mastromonaco's "Who Thought This Was A Good Idea?" and Rosemarie Terenzio's "Fairy Tale Interrupted". Both good books regarding being an assistant to power.What about Peggy Grande’s performance did you like?
No one could have told her story with such eloquence and heartfelt love for President Reagan as the woman that lived it herself. This book is a gift to all of us who loved President Reagan and who love hearing how great he was and that he had someone so wonderful to take care of him and Mrs. Reagan.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When Ms. Grande is heartfelt about seeing the president for the last time and how hard it was to say goodbye to someone she so loved. She had you right there, right in that back yard with her. I tear up now just writing the review. When you tear up in describing the emotion, you know it hit home!Any additional comments?
A truly fantastic read that should be considered for History classes. A gift.Best personal book on working with a president!
