   • 1908, Hosea Ballou Morse, The Trade And Administration Of The Chinese Empire‎^[2], Longmans, Green, and Co., page 322-323:

     Starting from Hangchow the canal goes by Kashing to Soochow, a distance of 100 miles, and thence by Wusih and Changchow through long straight stretches to Chinkiang, another 100 miles. It is here unlike our preconceived ideas of a canal—a current-less water-way barely wide enough to allow two streams of boats to pass each other—and has often a width of over a hundred feet between its sides, faced in many parts of its course with cut stone bunding.

   • 1946, Olga Lang, Chinese Family And Society‎^[3], Yale University Press, page 206:

     We investigated a group of 46 wives who either were employed in factories or had been. They lived in Shanghai, Wusih, and in villages in Kiangsu. Of this group 17 had more power than their husbands, 5 had equal power, 10 were consulted by their husbands in all matters and their advice carried weight though the husbands had the last word, 4 were consulted from time to time, sometimes only for the sake of appearances, and 10 were never consulted, had no right to dispose of their earnings, and were like old-fashioned wives.

     WUSIH ON THE GRAND CANAL
     Tsung-meng lives in the industrial city of Wusih which is 50 miles west of Shanghai. It stands on the shores of Lake Taihu and is bisected by the Grand Canal. The delta region in which Wusih lies is known as the Land of Fish and Rice because rice is the chief crop and fish abound in the lakes, streams and canals which interlace the land.
