| Details | A remarkable 175-year-long story of survival, ambition, and political intrigue connects two rival Jewish families—the Sassoons and the Kadoories—who dominated the world of Chinese business and politics. Author Jonathan Kaufman examines how their members helped transform China during pivotal years of growth, responded to revolutions that changed the future, and why they reluctantly had to leave it all behind with the advent of communism. |
