"I thought our family forever left behind a one-party state when my dad moved from China to America. I have, however, been living in a totalitarian-like environment these last few years in a zany New Jersey. Roger Simon’s entertaining and engaging book has prompted me to ask: Is there any room left for a Blue State refugee like me in Simon’s new home of Tennessee?"
-- Gordon Chang, author of China is Going to War
