This book critically reviews the British experience in Hong Kong
with special emphasis on the tenure of the last governor, Chris
Patten, and the discourse he used in guiding the transfer of
sovereignty to China. While the People's Republic of China
proclaimed the recovery of Hong Kong to be just retribution for a
century and a half of national shame under British rule, Patten, as
the spokesperson for the British, was concerned that Britain's exit
from its last significant colony should be an honourable one.
