[Reagan's eldest child Maureen recently said she has concluded Morris] wasted an incredible and irreplaceable opportunity, ... For your information, three of Reagan's four children have supported my portrait of Ronald Reagan, saying that it represents the father they remember and love. Only Maureen, of the four children, is saying that she refused to read the book. This is a pity, because if she did, she would find it not only fair to him, but in places flattering to her.
