A VERY GOOD, bright, clean, tight copy. ILLUSTRATED in full-color photography with many full page. "This appealing new book invites readers to savour the handful of old Chinese shops that still remain in Hong Kong of the 1990s, echoeing Old China, its beliefs and traditions. Beckoning from the faded terraces of long gone eras, these shops still sell things the Chinese have always valued, from finely-carved jade to aromatic teas. Two photographers journeyed from teahouse to medicine shops to alley seal-engravers to capture the charm of a bygone world, while writer Trea Wiltshire has lovingly placed each shop in its historical and social context." 95 pages. FRA2.
