This small volume distills the very essence of a destination - capturing within a suite of charming old Hong Kong postcards the colour, character, and excitement that beckoned travellers to journey to faraway places. Postcard from Hong Kong is your passport to a more leisurely era of travel when the grand hotels of this most eastern outpost of the British empire welcomed visitors from P&O steamers and the Trans Siberian railway. This volume adds an interesting postscript to the absorbing saga of Hong Kong as it embarks on its own journey as a special administrative region of The People's Republic of China.
