About the book >.>.> Fragrant Harbour-which is the surprising literal translation of Hong Kong. Though it is a description which might be received with some scepticism by those who know the port for the armchair traveller it conjures up all the sounds and spices of the Orient. But what is this British colony really like? F. D. Ommanney-unlike most travell- ers who hope to understand a city’s soul within a few days-lived there for three years. Fragrant Harbour is he says a sort of memorial to those years.
