Relations between Britain and China have been inextricably bound up with the taking of Hong Kong on 26th January 1841. The man responsible - Britain's Plenipotentiary Captain Charles Elliot - was recalled by his government in disgrace and has also been vilified by China. This book describes the taking of Hong Kong from Elliot's point of view.
