| Book description |
|
It is the early 19th century, when European traders and adventurers first began to penetrate the forbidding Chinese mainland. And it is in this exciting time and exotic place that a giant of an Englishman, Dirk Struan, sets out to turn the desolate island of Hong Kong into a bastion of British power, and to make himself the supreme ruler: the Tai-Pan. Following SHOGUN, this is second in the Asian saga.
"A great romantic saga that wonderfully captures the founding of Hong Kong, a must read for fans of historical fiction." (Amazon.com)
