Various HK guide/picture books that I have scanned & uploaded:

Picturesque Hong Kong 1899

A book of coloured photographs by W Brewer & Co, dated late 1898 or early 1899, from the construction of the Queens Building and the buildings on Connaught Street near the Hong Kong Club. I have included the pictures of Macao and Canton for completeness. The titles of the photographs are how they were captioned in the book. Click on the picture to zoom in.
