Shanghai: The Rise and Fall of a Decadent City 1842-1949 David K. Eiteman; Michael H. Moffett; Arthur I. Stonehill "The tragedies keep comingTransformed 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.
