You're thinking of Strategic Relocation: North American Guide to Safe Places by Joel Skousen (Lehi, Utah: Swift, 2010). The author is the brother of Mark and Royal Skousen and was the executive editor of Conservative Digest in the 1980's (believe it or not, in 1986, I found a copy of Conservative Digest at a magazine stand in Harvard Yard).

I thought it odd in reading Strategic Locations, that Skousen supposedly speaks for American conservatives everywhere, mostly Christians, in his book, yet he spoke highly of Mormons. Now I know why. He himself is one. He hid that fact in his book. He said Mormons have taken a bad rap in his book, they are good “Christians.” A red flag went up big time.

He seemed to be following Joe Smith’s white horse prophecy to a tee in the book, guiding Christians to the inter-mountain west to escape the threat of the Chinese. Well, this is precisely what Joe Smith prophesied. Red flags everywhere.

The name, Skousen, should have clued me in as to who this guy was.
