A Century of Jewish Life in Shanghai by Steve Hochstadt
For a century, Jews were an unmistakable and prominent feature of Shanghai life. In this book, we hear their own words and the words of modern scholars explaining how Baghdadi, Russian and Central European Jews found their way to Shanghai, created lives in the world's most cosmopolitan city, and were forced to find new homes in the late 1940s.Steve Hochstadt taught history at Illinois College 2006-2016, after teaching at Bates College in Maine for 27 years. His grandparents escaped from Vienna to Shanghai in 1939, and his research focuses on the Holocaust. His book Exodus to Shanghai: Stories of Escape from the Third Reich, based on interviews with former refugees, is being translated into Chinese.
