Description
Shanghai: High Lights, Low Lights, Tael Lights is a provocative guidebook to Shanghai's seedy underbelly in the mid-1930s. Written by two foreigners living life on their own terms, this book offers a candid look at the city's nightlife, with a focus on its sex and sin side. Published in 2009, the book provides a unique glimpse into the city's most outrageous era, when political correctness was scarce. The authors' insider knowledge and firsthand experiences shine through in this unflinching account of Shanghai's wilder side. With 130 pages of hardcover content, this book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of Shanghai and its reputation as a city that never sleeps.
