The Road To Shanghai: White Slave Traffic in Asia
Henry Champly
1938
John Long
3rd Impression
8vo
Description:
Based on the French journalist's travels through treaty ports and major urban hubs, including Shanghai, Singapore, and Tokyo, the narrative purports to expose international syndicates operating forced prostitution networks. In turn it is a largely a controversial piece stark in colonial social anxieties, yet it does offer an interesting window to the time as it was widely read being printed over 10,000 times.
Condition:
Very Good Condition. Blue cloth with faded lettering to spine. Binding is firm. Contents are clean. Light sunning to spine. Light wear to boards.
