Killing Reagan : the violent assault that changed a presidency

O'Reilly, Bill (author.). Dugard, Martin (author.).

Summary: "Just two months into his presidency, Ronald Reagan lay near death after a gunman's bullet came within inches of his heart. His recovery was nothing short of remarkable -- or so it seemed. But Reagan was grievously injured, forcing him to encounter a challenge that few men ever face. Could he silently overcome his traumatic experience while at the same time carrying out the duties of the most powerful man in the world?"--
