"Who was Ronald Reagon?", is the name of the book that I finished 5 minutes ago. It was relatively short so I was able to complete it in approximately 50 minutes. As you can probably guess I'm going to summarize this book for today's post. Ronald Reagon was born on Tampico, Illinois, on February 6, 1911. His father called him, "A fat little Dutchman!" and the name stuck. From here on out Ronald Reagon would be named "Dutch Reagon' for the rest of his childhood. The Reagon family moved a lot because Ronald's father would always lose his job due to alcohol. Neil Reagon was his brother and two of them would always be the two newest kids at school. However, Neil didn't have a problem with fitting in. It was just Ronald that got lonely for the most part. He would look out at the lake or find places to explore near his house.

Nelle Wilson Reagon was a kind-hearted woman and also the mother of Ronald. She was always so compassionate and never wasted a second trying to aid a family in need of help. Sometimes, she'd even hand prisoners food because of how poorly treated they were. Unfortunately, Nelle would never realize how poor her family was. For dinner, she'd feed the family liver and patties made out of oatmeal. The thing was, Ronald never knew just how poor his family was. He'd always thought that Nelle was just an atrocious cook! Soon enough Ronald Reagon was starting high-school! The teenager never knew how near-sighted he was until putting on his mother's glasses. With that being said, Nelle took her son to the eye doctor and together they got him a pair of horn-rimmed glasses.

Soon enough Ronald was becoming one of the most popular boys at his school! The kid ran track and played football as well, he even participated in plays as well as working on the yearbook, getting elected as president of the drama club, and etc. Later on in life, Ronald was handed a contract to be a part of Hollywood. His idea of a movie a football coach who's all-star player was dying. At first, the people at Hollywood were skeptical about Ronald's appearance and height. However, he proved them wrong by showing pictures of his high-school football team. They decided to only let him star into the movie if he changed his name, let them fix his hair, and take off the glasses. A couple of years later, Ronald was a star and almost everyone knew of him. The man married a woman named, "Jane Wyman". 

The two of them divorced later on with both of their two children going to Jane. Nancy Davis was Ronald's second and last relationship seemingly because she was still married to him all the way through the rest of his life. At that point, Ronald had already become Governer and wanted to be president. Although he was a democratic Ronald Reagon became a Republican. That didn't mean he would stop doing the best for his country. Ronald was the first actor to ever become president, on the day of his inauguration Ronald Reagon's friends from Hollywood joined him to witness the 40th president of the United States of America. One day, Ronald Reagon had finished making a speech at Washington D.C, as he was walking out of the building 4 shots rang out. The president was hit in the rib cage and his secretary killed. 

Thankfully, the Ronald greatly recovered and immediately went back into the problems of America. The Soviet Union and America were against each other. However, after the Soviet elected a new leader the two powerful men had a peaceful conversation. The first step toward peace was banning one nuclear weapon from ever being used. The Berlin wall was created by Gorbachev and was later taken down because of an immense and powerful speed from Ronald Reagon. It is amazing how a list of words can impact such a big change! The Reagans returned to their home and rested until the death of Ronald. He had Alzheimer's disease and would probably forget everything that he had done for the country. On the day of his death hundreds of thousands of people mourned for him. The man really was a great president!
