This is the first account of the story of Shanghai’s underground war. Wasserstein has researched it entirely from original sources & uncovered startling new evidence of collaboration & treason by American, British, & Australian citizens. This remarkable depiction of complicity & betrayal is history at its most exciting & surprising. Photos.
