Packed with tales of traders and gangsters, artists and activists, missionaries and armies of labourers, this concise history focuses in particular on the period from Shanghai's heyday in the late-nineteenth century to the Communist take-over of 1949.Wei, Betty P. is the author of 'Old Shanghai' with ISBN 9780195857474 and ISBN 019585747X.
