By 1938, Changsha had become China’s intellectual hub, according to Diana Lary’s book “The Chinese People at War: Human Suffering and Social Transformation, 1937-1945.â€
But in November of that year, much of the city was burned to the ground in an effort to keep it out of the hands of the invading Japanese. More than two-thirds of its buildings were destroyed and 20,000 or more people died, Lary’s book said.
Today, Changsha, the capital of Hunan province, has about 2.6 million people. It is a shipping and distribution center.
