The Last Kings of Shanghai: The Rival Jewish Dynasties That Helped Create Modern China
Jonathan Kaufman
@chinarhyming @GBLee Interesting. I have just started reading The Last Kings of Shanghai by Jonathan Kaufman. A friend highly recommended it. She suggested that once I finish the book, we meet up to talk about it at the rooftop bar of the Peninsula Hotel Shanghai. Sounds like a posh date.
