Lot Essay

The four quotes on the monteith are some of President Reagan's best known. Two are taken from the addresses to either Congress or Western Europe regarding relations between the United States and the Soviet Union. One is from an address to the Canadian Parliament and the last from an address to Chinese community leaders in Beijing.
