Secret
War in Shanghai
by Bernard Wasserstein
Before World War II, Shanghai was China's leading commercial center
and the most vital and glamorous of Asia's great cities. Against the background
of civil war, Shanghai was administered by a consortium of international
powers intent on exploiting a defenseless China. The city's seizure by
the Imperial Japanese Army in December 1941 ended much of its glitter but
not its role as a den of espionage, corruption, and vice. Bernard Wasserstein
deftly sets the complex scene as the different powerbrokers, from ambassadors
to gangsters, accommodated to the occupying Japanese. The cast of characters
is bizarre, ranging from master spies such as Richard Sorge, whose coup
was to warn Stalin of Germany's impending invasion, to imposters and petty
secret agents living on their wits. People were not what they seemed: the
author reveals the often sordid realities behind his protagonists' masks
as they struggled for survival and each others' secrets. Richly researched
from original sources, Secret War in Shanghai is particularly successful
in painting vivid pictures of the different national groups that found
themselves caught up in the city's vortex: destitute White Russians, refugees
from Hitler's Germany, British taipans trying to hang onto their business
interests. The story moves as fast as a racy novel, yet it is all meticulously
documented fact. --John Stevenson - Amazon.com
