Summary
Recounts the history of Shanghai, a main point of contact between China and the outside world, and a place with great contrasts, ruled by gangsters and the birthplace of the Communist Party in China. Reprint. 17,500 first printing.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:

Transformed from a swampland wilderness into a dazzling, modern–day Babylon, the Shanghai that predated Mao‘s cultural revolution was a city like no other: redolent with opium and underworld crime, booming with foreign trade, blessed with untold wealth and marred by abject squalor.

Journalist Stella Dong captures all the exoticism, extremes, and excitement of this legendary city as if it were a larger–than–life character in a fantastic novel.
