Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. THE UNTOLD STORY OF REAGAN, THATCHER, THE INVASION OF GRENADA AND THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF THE COLD WARHow Reagan reignited the foreign policy principles that made America a ?shining city upon a hill.?On October 25th,1983 President Ronald Reagan launched one of the most successful invasions in modern American history.
