Assignment: Shanghai: Photographs on the Eve of Revolution (Series in Contemporary Photography, 2)

University of California Press, 2003

valuable images of a bygone era

Draconic measures, executions and riots, an emigre community divorced from the reality of life in China. In seeing these pictures you see the beginning of the ...

Some of it is shocking, some of it is amusing. It is all a riveting read ...
