Hong Kong miscellanea (and more)

This is the first Chinese-language book on Hong Kong history written by a local Chinese scholar, as well as an encyclopedia of 19th century Hong Kong society! This book contains two invaluable historical documents of Hong Kong, "Hong Kong Chronicles" and "The Complete Plan for the Construction of Kowloon Walled City", which can be regarded as an encyclopedia of 19th century Hong Kong. Among them, "Hong Kong Chronicles" written in 1894 by Chen Hui-xun, with concise words, comprehensively shows the social overview of Hong Kong and the southern Kowloon area in the 19th century. It is the first Chinese-language book on Hong Kong history written by a local Chinese scholar, which paved the way for the further research of Hong Kong history and has been influential ever since. "The Complete Plan for the Construction of Kowloon Walled City" reveals the internal situation of the Qing government's construction of Kowloon Walled City, forts and other defense facilities after the Opium War, showing the social development of the Kowloon area at that time. It is an important material to help future generations understand and study the social situation of the area before the British occupation of Kowloon.
