City of Darkness: Life in Kowloon

The Walled City was long rumored to be a den of vice and crime — and its past wasn’t spotless. But what Girard and Lambot found was something more surprising: a self-sufficient, tight-knit community that had solved the everyday problems of city life through sheer ingenuity. This book captures that truth before it was gone forever.

First editions are rare and increasingly sought after by collectors of photography, architecture, and Hong Kong history. A copy in fine condition is a genuine find.
