Government and People in Hong Kong 1841-1962: A Constitutional History

Review

?Throughout its history the colony has been a special problem, different in character from other colonies, and Mr. Endacott's placid account of its constitutional evolution, or lack of evolution, brings the difference out very clearly. Although he places his main emphasis on institutional change, he provides enough information about the political and economic background to make the story understandable.?-Times (London) Literary Supplement
