On December 25, 1941, the day of Hong Kong's surrender to the
Japanese, Admiral Chan Chak, the Chinese government's chief agent
in Hong Kong, and more than sixty Chinese, British and Danish
intelligence, naval and marine personnel made a dramatic escape
from the invading army. This gripping account of the escape draws
on a wealth of primary sources in both English and Chinese and
sheds new light on the role played by the Chinese in the defence of
Hong Kong, on the diplomacy behind the escape, and on the guerillas
who carried the Admiral in a sedan chair as they led his party over
the rivers and mountains of enemy-occupied China.
