Shanghai - High Lights, Low Lights, Tael

First published in 1936, this remarkable guidebook explores the seamier side of Shanghai, China, in the mid-1930s. Written by two pretty, dissolute foreigners living life to the fullest and working, at least partially, in a Whangpoo whiskey haze, this candid handbook focuses on the colorful nightlife--particularly the sex and sin--of the city. This is a hilarious and unique history of a covert Shanghai.

Maurine Karns was a writer and inhabitant of Shanghai during the 1930s. Pat Patterson was a Canadian pilot who represented all the major U.S. aircraft manufacturers in China in the 1930s.
