Book Synopsis
This work covers cultural change in a Chinese city following the Manchu conquest of 1644. Yangzhou, at the intersection of the Grand Canal and the Yangzi river, is known as the site of human and physical devastation during the conquest and as a vibrant commercial centre during the 18th century.

Trade Review
"Tobie Meyer-Fong's book provides deep insight into the cultural history of Yangzhou during the second half of the seventeenth century, a period less documented and studied than the century of wealth that followed." -- The Journal of Asian Studies
