The Associated Pressreports that HarperCollins plans to publish a collection of the Reagan diaries. Ronald Reagan wrote in his diaries each day of his presidency and they would make fascinating reading -- however, he never intended for them to be published.
Reagan, who died at 93 last June following a 10-year battle with Alzheimer's disease, wrote in his diaries every day of his presidency, recording his thoughts on events both routine and historic, officials said.
While the volumes "were not initially intended for publication, we feel that these volumes offer an unprecedented insight into the Reagan presidency," said Frederick Ryan Jr., chairman of the Simi Valley, Calif.-based foundation's board of trustees.
