Book excerpt: A Danger Shared is a searing visual history of wartime Asia as seen by foreign correspondent Melville Jacoby. In this meticulously curated collection of never-before-seen images, readers experience glamorous Macau soirées and witness wartime Chongqing's wreckage and resilience. Jacoby treats Filipino fishermen and Hanoi flower-sellers with the same care as the Soong Sisters, Chiang Kai-Shek, and other icons. Through scenes of everyday friendship, toil, and commerce, A Danger Shared documents humanity's persistence at a cataclysmic historical moment.
