Picturesque Hongkong. First edition of this photographic tribute to the scenery and majesty of interwar Hong Kong. The photographer (1897-1970) moved to the colony in 1923 and trained his lens on such subjects as Kowloon, the harbour, Wyndham Street, and Queen's Road."Hongkong is more than a strategically situated seaport, the focal point of the land and sea routes of that part of the globe; it is also one of the world's beauty spots" (introduction).
