Small bit of age wear to dust jacket, otherwise nice clean copy inside and out. From the back cover: "Shanghai in the 1920s was a society of excess, almost perfectly designed to let Chinese and Westerners see each other at their worst. In (this book) Nicholas Clifford draws on a wide range of diplomatic and police documents to show just why this should have been so. This is an absorbing tale of privilege, exploitation and resentment--one that adds a fresh dimension to our studies of a decade that proved central to China's modern history."
