Baker -Asian Affairs -Based on extensive documentation in both Chinese and English, this book delineates the gradual yet significant social and political changes that transformed colonial Hong Kong during a crucial stage of Sino-Western interaction and the global expansion of capticalism-imperialism. . . .
