港島街道百年（英文版）A CENTURY OF HONG KONGS ISLA

Between the middle of, and the late nineteenth century, Hong Kong was already a great commercial centre in the Far East; many well-known photographers visited Hong Kong and captured many contemporaneous Hong Kong scenes and the face of the city on film. A great number of photos taken of scenery as well as those used in picture postcards, through the vehicle of these photographs and picture postcard scenes that were taken at various periods, we can see the changes in Hong Kong as it developed as a city; including the leveling of mountains, harbour reclamation, the replacing of old low-rise buildings with newer high-rise ones; the transformation in food habits, housing and transportation; and even historical events and celebrations. All these important visual records of Hong Kong^s development you can find in this book.
