Why do they stay? How did Hong Kong change them and their view of the world? What did they gain and what did they lose?</p> <p>Human beings are on the move, driven by economic globalisation, political persecution, love or simple curiosity; and this global flow defines the age in which we live. From these expat stories, larger themes loom: identities transformed; racism, naked and clothed; blended relationships; and the tensions and tolerance engendered through peoples, languages and cultures in contact.</p> <p><b>Look inside this book! </b><br /> Click on the following link to read pages from <i>Other Voices, Other Eyes</i>.

American journalist Todd Crowell captures a unique moment in history as Britain stoically soldiers through the last months of its 156 years of colonial rule, China waits restlessly to resume its sovereignty, and Hong Kong buzzes with endless speculation. He tells how Hong Kong’s Chinese and expats, taipans and cagemen come to terms with the impending change of rule. He mingles with the rich and famous and common people alike. He votes in elections controversially called by Governor Chris Patten. He then follows the selection of a rival legislature, and of Patten’s successor, shipping magnate Tung Chee-hwa, as the first chief executive of the Hong Kong SAR.</p> <p>The city’s pulse is charted by his pen, through to the pomp, circumstance and partying of the day of handover itself. Now, 20 years later, Crowell has updated this valuable historical record with reflections on what has happened since 1997.</td> <td valign="top" width="180" style="padding: 0px 0px 16px 16px;"> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="right" style="border-collapse: collapse;"> <tbody> <tr> <td align="right" style="line-height: 100%; padding: 0px;"><a href="https://www.blacksmithbooks.com/books/farewell-my-colony-last-days-in-the-life-of-british-hong-kong/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img decoding="async" src="//www.blacksmithbooks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/farewell_my_colony_em-2c88d3bf67377f54501ae815402d8fb9.jpg" border="0" width="180" class="user_uploaded_image" style="display: block;" height="277" /></a></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </td> </tr> </table> <div style="clear: both;"></div> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="273" valign="top" align="left"> <img decoding="async" src="https://app.streamsend.com/images/templates/1051/spacer.gif" alt="" style="display: block;" height="29" width="1" /></td> <td width="277" valign="top" align="left"></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> <div style="border: 0px hidden #000000; outline: medium none;" data-type="block" class=""> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="24" valign="top" align="left"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold;"><font size="4"><span style="color: #38761d;"></span></font></span></p> <p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">November 28: Book signing with the Sheriff of Wan Chai<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold;"><font size="4"><span style="color: #38761d;"></span></font></span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold;"><font size="4"><span style="color: #38761d;"></span></font></span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold;"><font size="4"><span style="color: #38761d;"></span></font></span></p> <p><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold;"><font size="4"><span style="color: #38761d;"></span></font></span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold;"><font size="4"><span style="color: #38761d;"></span></font></span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold;"><font size="4"><span style="color: #38761d;"></span></font></span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold;"><font size="4"><span style="color: #38761d;"></span></font></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="10" valign="top" align="left"> <img decoding="async" src="https://app.streamsend.com/images/templates/1051/divider.gif" alt="" style="display: block;" height="2" width="534" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20px;" valign="top" align="left"> <div> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; mso-table-lspace: 0; mso-table-rspace: 0;"> <tr> <td valign="top" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; line-height: 20px;" width="354">In 1976, Peter Mann left England for Hong Kong.
