520    How a single day revealed the history and foreshadowed the
       future of Shanghai. It is November 12, 1941, and the world
       is at war. In Shanghai, just weeks before Pearl Harbor, 
       thousands celebrate the birthday of China's founding 
       father, Sun Yat-sen, in a new city center built to 
       challenge European imperialism. Across town, crowds of 
       Shanghai residents from all walks of life attend the 
       funeral of China's wealthiest woman, the Chinese-French 
       widow of a Baghdadi Jewish businessman whose death was 
       symbolic of the passing of a generation that had seen 
       Shanghai's rise to global prominence. But it is the 
       racetrack that attracts the largest crowd of all. At the 
       center of the International Settlement, the heart of 
       Western colonization-but also of Chinese progressivism, 
       art, commerce, cosmopolitanism, and celebrity-Champions 
       Day unfolds, drawing tens of thousands of Chinese 
       spectators and Europeans alike to bet on the horses. In a 
       sharp and lively snapshot of the day's events, James 
       Carter recaptures the complex history of Old Shanghai. 
       Champions Day is a kaleidoscopic portrait of city poised 
       for revolution.
