Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Syd Goldsmiths first taste of Chinas Cultural Revolution is blood on his tongue. It is 1967. Hong Kong is simmering, plagued by communist-led riots and strikes, crippled transport, punishing water-rationing, takeover threats from Beijing and roadside bombs. And Syd -- the only Caucasian Foreign Service Officer at the American Consulate General who speaks Cantonese -- is made responsible for reporting and analysis of the Hong Kong governments ability to survive. The CIA station chief and the head of Macaus gold syndicate play major roles in Syds story, along with Newsweeks bureau chief Maynard Parker, correspondent Sydney Liu and a steady stream of inquiring foreign correspondents and China-watchers. Richard Nixon makes a cameo appearance -- to talk football with Syd since the consul general wont see him -- in this riveting memoir of a year when Hong Kongs borrowed time seemed about to expire.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. As the Hong Kong handover boom fizzles into the Asian economic bust, a young American couple's marriage and careers tumble into a maze of television news, betrayal, high finance, and cheap lingerie.

Muhammad Cohen is a darn good writer. His sharp insights and pointed wit will change the way you look at news anchors, bankers, 28-year-old heirs to media empires high on nicotine gum, and Japanese food. - Lorraine Hahn, broadcast journalist Cohen was a well-placed insider during the tumultuous Hong Kong handover.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Author and blogger Jason Y Ng has a knack for making the familiar both fascinating and funny.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Robert Wang fled the Chinese civil war at the age of five and came to Hong Kong with nothing. The colony was a harsh place in the 1950s and 1960s. But he was determined to rise to the top -- and through hard work and resolve, he got there. The law firm he founded grew into the city's fifth largest. With the clock ticking towards the hand-over of Hong Kong to China, and no one knowing what the end of British rule would bring, Robert hatched an audacious scheme to safeguard the fortunes of Hong Kong's richest tycoons. He would convince Singapore to take them in. At last, he was walking with kings: dealing one-on-one with the most powerful businessmen and politicians of Hong Kong and South-east Asia. It was an exhilarating experience -- but climbing so high has its dangers. After unwittingly offending the wrong power brokers, he was cast aside and left to defend himself against the damnation of corporate rumours. Robert's rags-to-riches story offers a rare look inside the unimaginably wealthy world of Hong Kong's property tycoons -- men such as Li Ka-shing, Cheng Yu-tung and Lee Shau-kee -- but also, as he tells the tale of four generations of his family, we learn that it is the traditional values of tolerance, filial piety and loyalty which endure.…
