Taylor’s enthralling story, combined with impeccable research and its rich human interest, makes this as dramatically gripping as any of the spy thrillers that used the wall as a backdrop.
 
     
 

In 1967 Frederick Taylor was awarded a history scholarship to Oxford University, where he read History and Modern Languages (German). After graduating he pursued postgraduate studies at the University of Sussex, where he was awarded a Volkswagen Studentship and travelled widely in East and West Germany researching a thesis on the German far-right before 1918. He has since worked as a publisher, a translator of fiction and non-fiction, a novelist and scriptwriter. His second major historical book, The Berlin Wall: 13 August 1961-9 November 1989, was published in 2006 in Britain and in June 2007 in the USA.

  Hong Kong - Day and Night  
  The daytime of Hong Kong is busy and boring. Day after day, the repetition of life is represented in black and white pictures. On the other hand, the night-time at Hong Kong is prosperous and colorful, therefore it shows in color pictures. These contrast created Hong Kong – the Pearl of Oriental.  
     
  Andy Yau – an experienced photographer, and as well as Member of the Fellowship of The Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain. He is also the Vice-President of The Hong Kong Art of Photography Association.
