While serving as an assistant to Vice President George H. W. Bush; Chase Untermeyer concluded that the only way to learn how the US government really works was to leave the silken cocoon of the White House and seek a position in one of the departments or agencies. In March 1983; when offered an appointment as a deputy assistant secretary of the Navy; he jumped at the opportunity. After only a year as a “DASN;†he was named by President Ronald Reagan as assistant secretary for Manpower Reserve Affairs; in charge of all personnel issues affecting nearly one million sailors and Marines and a third of a million civilian workers. Inside Reagan’s Navy offers an engaging; up-close narrative of Untermeyer’s experiences in the Pentagon; interwoven with descriptions of events and people; humorous anecdotes; and telling quotations. As in his earlier book; When Things Went Right: The Dawn of the Reagan-Bush Administration; Inside Reagan’s Navy paints a portrait of official Washington during the Reagan years; with its politics; parties; and personalities.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. EnlightenjngBy consumerThe book is a well written trove of information about Shiva; those whose worship him; and a glimpse of what "devotion" is. I'd recommend it to anyone interested in the source and foundation of many of today's books written as a basis for religions.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Great book!By BBI've gained a lot of knowledge about Shiva from this book. It's a very great one although stories told in this book are quite different from what I've read before. I'm sure anyone reading this book will enjoy the stories.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
