When the British occupied the tiny island of Hong Kong during the First Opium War, the Chinese empire was well into its decline, while Great Britain was already in the second decade of its legendary "Imperial Century."

Carroll's engrossing and accessible narrative explores the remarkable history of Hong Kong from the early 1800s.
