A Concise Modern History of Hong Kong (Revised Edition)

From the opening of Hong Kong as a free port to the end of World War II, this book uses the most concise language to explain the development of modern Hong Kong, allowing readers to grasp the modern history of Hong Kong in the shortest time and in a relaxed manner. This book abandons the general chronological arrangement of historical events in typical history books, and divides modern Hong Kong into seven main contexts: from British colonial rule to the dark age of Japanese occupation, from different aspects of education, transportation, public security and military, to the introduction of important industries and different ethnic groups, the spread of Western religions, and the addition of "Chronology of Major Events (1839-1945)" and "Further Reading". Each picture in the book is a small piece of knowledge about Hong Kong, telling one Hong Kong story after another.
