Don was and is a true Reaganite and I congratulate him on his memoir. Michael Reagan, Columnist and radio host; author, The City on a HillDon Hodel is a man of faith, family, and country. He has always been a strong but kind and thoughtful leader who sets an extraordinary example for those who know him and have worked with him. There is much to learn from someone who has led a full and good life, in public service and business, as his outstanding book accounts. I am honored to have worked with Don and to call him my friend. There is so much to learn from him and his outstanding book. I wholeheartedly encourage as many people as possible to read it and share it with family and friends. Mark R.
