These stories, revelations & anecdotes were told by the boys & girls, men & women, 49 of them, who started out in the trenches; some before Reagan ever decided to run for political office.

They tell the stories of the interaction between Reagan and the unsung heroes, some of whom have already passed away. Their personal stories & vignettes reveal why they dropped everything they were doing & worked up to eighteen hours a day to help start the "boomlet" that launched RR at the dawn of his political career. These were high-principled individuals with a strong love of country, an insatiable work-ethic, an honest core---and---an abiding love for & trust in Ronald Reagan.
