About this product

Product Information

Pirates, plagues, pistols, and poisons: with adventure of all varieties, this is a rollicking journey into colonial Hong Kong. A collection of historical odds and ends--stories, quotations, cartoons, postcards, and drawings--this book recounts in thrilling detail how a "barren rock" seemingly destined to fail rose to become one of the richest trading outposts in Asia.

As described... A+++ on shipping and price... C (and that's being generous) on time. If you have forever and a month of Sundays to wait around then by all means do so. The price was great and the seller communicated wonderfully and the item was packed well so it wasn't damaged during transit all A pluses in my book just took a little bit longer than I anticipated.
