Product Information
This deeply researched book describes one of the great forgotten battles of the 20th century. At its height it involved nearly a million Chinese and Japanese soldiers, while sucking in three million civilians as unwilling spectators and, often, victims. It turned what had been a Japanese adventure in China into a general war between the two oldest and proudest civilisations of the Far East. Ultimately, it led to Pearl Harbor and to seven decades of tumultuous history in Asia. The Battle of Shanghai was a pivotal event that helped define and shape the modern world. In its sheer scale, the struggle for China's largest city was a sinister forewarning of what was in store for the rest of mankind only a few years hence, in theatres around the world. It demonstrated how technology had given rise to new forms of warfare, or had made old forms even more lethal. Amphibious landings, tank assaults, aerial dogfights and most importantly, urban combat, all happened in Shanghai in 1937. It was a dress rehearsal for World War II-or perhaps more correctly it was the inaugural act in the war-the first major battle in the global conflict. Actors from a variety of nations were present in Shanghai during the three fateful autumn months when the battle raged. The rich cast included China's ascetic Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek and his Japanese adversary, General Matsui Iwane, who wanted Asia to rise from disunity, but ultimately pushed the continent toward its deadliest conflict ever. Claire Chennault, later of Flying Tiger fame, was among the figures emerging in the course of the campaign, as was First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt. In an ironic twist, Alexander von Falkenhausen, a stern German veteran of the Great War, abandoned his role as a mere advisor to the Chinese army and led it into battle against the Japanese invaders. Written by Peter Harmsen, a foreign correspondent in East Asia for two decades, and currently bureau chief in Taiwan for the French news agency AFP, 'Shanghai 1937' fills a gaping chasm in our understanding of the Second World War. 48 pages of photographs

- l***s (518)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI saw this movie on eBay, and this seller had best value - best price, new item and free postage. Quick processing and good communication - informed of posting, delivery - arrived on the earliest days of the estimated delivery dates, via Aramex in vacuumed pack. No damage during transit and the DVD disc looked new as per ad. I am very happy with this purchase and very happy with this seller. Thank you.
- a***7 (6)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufOrdered on the 25th, left Melbourne on the 23rd, arrived Midday 25th. Had to message the seller so I knew who the shipping agent was so I could track it. Well packaged, prompt service and having done online purchases before and being disappointed with tracking, cannot praise Direct Freight Express enough for moving the item through the processes while they had it. I'm sure this textbook will help me a lot in my course I'm about to start.
