“I just finished reading ‘Looking for Hugh.’ I thought it was terrific! Not at all what I expected when I reluctantly picked it up, assuming it would be a dry-as-dust tract on the glory of capitalism,” Burt Prelutsky, conservative columnist and author of the Los Angeles Times’ best-seller Conservatives Are From Mars, Liberals Are From San Francisco.
“Leon has written a book that tells a fascinating story about Capitalism in an Orwellian style,” Kevin McCullough, radio host and commentator.
“I think it's altruistic and noble to try all means possible to restore American traditions of individualism, self-responsibility, and entrepreneurship. We're on the same side,” Herb Walberg, Chairman of the Board, The Heartland Institute.
“Seriously … and I mean this truthfully and honestly … it is a masterpiece. I had the same feeling about it that I had when I first met Winston Smith in Orwell's classic. …I think it is a must-read for so many people today to understand what it is we in the ‘West’ are sleep-walking into. Unlike 1917 it is not the gun that brings it but gradual changes …Bravo on a wonderful piece of work!” Phil Hendren of the London-based “Dizzy Thinks” political website.
"Leon Weinstein has masterfully and creatively written an adventure-fantasy which reminds me of both "Animal Farm" and "Alice in Wonderland." Ms. Terry Gilberg, Talk Radio Host.
I was lucky to live a truly fascinating life under different social structures. I was even luckier to escape from the Soviet Union after I came to the conclusion that socialism, in any form, leads to stagnation and degradation. I came to hate central planning, redistribution of wealth, and especially the huge, all-powerful state taking care of the small, insignificant me. I now know why socialism never works, and why capitalism works time after time—without government interference. I also understand why weak people like the idea of socialism, but the reality is very different from what they envisioned.
Personally I want to be in charge of my life, make my own decisions, and be free and do what makes me happy. And I want my children and grandchildren to be as free and as happy as I am. In short, I want to live in the U.S. of A and would hate to see it “fundamentally changed.”
And so I am dedicating this book to my newly adopted homeland. God bless this wonderful country of ours! God bless America!
