Lovely fusion of text and image

A beautifully-produced, compact book on the architecture and urban landscape of colonial Hong Kong from the mid 19th century into the 1930's. Introduction, fold-out map, over 75 illustrations, bibliography, 167 pp. Moss is interested in aesthetics, in the purposes of buildings, in their histories, in their builders, in their locations, in their original occupants, and mostly in the buildings' relationships to the changing history of Hong Kong.
