A perceptive and engaging history of a complex and fascinating Chinese family. Cochran and Hsieh provide an intimate portrait of a family and a city in the midst of nation-building, war, and revolution—a portrayal based on a unique collection of correspondence and unlikely to be rivaled soon, if at all.—Joseph W. Esherick, author of Ancestral Leaves: A Family Journey through Chinese History

Written in a page-turning style, The Lius of Shanghai offers an illuminating view of lives lived in the midst of the turbulence of China’s twentieth century. A fascinating and insightful account.—Bryna Goodman, author of Native Place, City, and Nation: Regional Networks and Identities in Shanghai, 1853–1937
