New details of the remarkable relationship between two leaders who teamed up to change history.It?s well known that Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher were close allies and kindre d political spirits. During their eight overlapping years as U.S. president and UK prime minister, they stood united for free markets, low taxes, and a strong defense against communism.
