Son of The Revolution- Willis
I have to say this book started off slow, but it gave me a lot if factual information on China. I found a lot of good information on the lifestyle of families in China, and the story of his mother really dragged me into the story. Also I can see how strong the people felt about politics which really got me to compare their culture to ours. The way they treat women there is hard to even compare to many countries in the modern day, but I suppose in that era many countries treated women with less dignity. As I said before their political stress such as the families feelings towards the Liang family really opens my eyes to their cultures feelings when it comes to high class families. This book should be read by American citizens to let them appreciate their right to vote for whoever they please.

I completely agree with your comment on Americans taking their voting privilages for granted. Good insight.
