Rural Architecture of Old Hong Kong.  Purchased blind from Abe but its a real gem with buildings photographed from many angles and also plans and elevations.  I dont recall being as delighted as this for ages

Not sure it will inspire any desire to game this period, rather the opposite in fact but I'm currently reading 'The Kaiser's Holocaust' about  German SW Africa. Pretty horrendous stuff and rather chilling to see the photos of the mass  graves unearthed from the dunes.
