Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Many of us like to think that we fully subscribe to the "American dream" notion of accepting any and all to our shores, seeking whatever it is that they hope to find here. But deep down, many also feel that we are in danger of losing some of the "old traditional values that made this country what it is." When I opened "Under the Dragon" I expected nothing more than a picture book that would coddle us into feeling comfortable about the many strange cultures that have flooded the country. Well, let me say this book is just the opposite. It may superficially glorify exotic culture, but its outstanding photographs with accompanying text bring home forcefully the idea that it is this very diversity that will keep the American tradition going. With all its warts, this country is still unique in the world, and instead of ending up as a warzone of battling ethnic groups, it will merge into one of the most dynamic and culturally interesting countries the world will ever see, with California leading the way.
