More reviews worth reading of our friend John O’Sullivan’s book — first from Mark Steyn in Macleans and second by Father Richard Neuhaus in First Things. Fr. Neuhaus’s is sub.-only, but here is how he opens:
I don’t say that everybody has been waiting for it, but I was, and now it is out. The President, the Pope, and the Prime Minister: Three Who Changed the World, by the distinguished journalist John O’Sullivan, packs into an engaging narrative the detail and color of three decades of transformation-spiritual, political, and economic. The three figures who changed the world are, of course, Ronald Reagan, John Paul II, and Margaret Thatcher. For anyone who came of political age by the 1970s, the book is a reminder of just how much has changed. “Ah yes,” a reader might find himself saying again and again, “I had almost forgotten that.” For younger readers, this is an account of “the olden days” that persuasively explains how we got to where we are.
